- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Oh dear, vhat a disappointment.
This was a book I first read in school when I was a tiny person and I had very fond memories of this being a hilarious little book which I loved. It is in fact a funny little book which I think I must have gotten mixed up with The Little Vampire (or some other vampire - I had a fear of the fanged creatures at that age and I'm pretty sure I was reading a lot of these books as research or something...).
It is an enjoyable book and features Eric Morecambe's trademark cheeky but gentle humour, but I read this and kept thinking the humour was more suited to a long sketch than a book and after half-way through my attention really began to waver and I just wasn't enjoying it much.
Still, I think a lot of my enjoyment had to do with expectations, so I think this is probably better than the two stars I'm giving it. I did love Victor the Vampire in this - he was ten types of awesome.
