by Debi Gliori

Pure Dead Brilliant definitely lives up to its name. The third book in the hilarious fantasy series documents the lives of the Strega-Borgia clan, descended from sorceresses and Mafiosos and the employers of nanny Flora McLachlan, a certified witch. Titus Strega-Borgia is about to inherit a massive amount of money from his grandfather, having no idea the money came from the hugely successful Italian mafia. Much to the chagrin of his younger sister, Pandora, he continues to flaunt his immense wealth Meanwhile, several of Mrs. Baci Strega-Borgia’s colleagues from the Institute of Advanced Witchcraft have come to the StregaSchloss mansion, leaving Nanny McLachlan to realize that one of them is not what she seems.

Coincidentally, Damp, the youngest Strega-Borgia child, is developing her abilities as a top-notch sorceress right under the inept witch-in-training Baci’s nose. On top of it all, Titus’s rat-faced uncle, Lucifer, feels compelled to come up to StregaSchloss in Scotland to reclaim what he feels is his rightful inheritance.

Complete with spiders, rats, dragons, griffins, yetis, and an appearance by a certain fabled Scottish loch monster, Pure Dead Brilliant is another thrilling installment of this six book series, overflowing with accents, jokes, and subtle Scottish digs. For anyone who likes their serving of books well-done with laughs, drama, and a generous helping of toilet humor, don’t miss out!
