{"product_id":"9780702315633","title":"The Case of the Chaos Monster: an Elemental Detectives Adventure by Patrice Lawrence","description":"       A stunningly imagined, action-packed fantasy adventure      for fans of Nevermoor, Neverwhere and Mortal      Engines, from bestselling and award-winning author Patrice      Lawrence.         'A beautifully written book, bristling with magic, set      in an ancient London filled with dragons, ghosts, water spirits,      and a mysterious, creeping sleeping-sickness that must be fought      by the brave young heroes. I loved it.' Cressida Cowell,      Children's Laureate \u0026amp; author of How to Train Your      Dragon.         Step into a London lit up by the Elemental spirits:      the fiery Dragons, the airy Fumis, the watery Chads and the      earthbound Magogs.         Marisee and Robert - the Elemental Detectives - are back      to solve another mystery on the streets of eighteenth century London.         An orchestra explodes in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens and suddenly      the music of London disappears... and a terrifying monster      stirs off the Greenwich peninsular, threatening to trample      London underfoot. The detectives must track down the thief behind      the music's disappearance - via the Whispering Gallery of St      Paul's Cathedral, a Windmill-with-teeth on the Isle of Dogs and      the dark streets of Soho... where a shadowy villain and his mechanical      animal spies live.             Big, bold, future classic storytelling for a new generation.         A London where magic sparks just beneath the surface - this book      is set to ignite young imaginations.         The second book in a major new series.                      MORE PRAISE FOR ELEMENTAL DETECTIVES      'I loved reading about a re-imagining of London with so much invention      and energy. The world-building is well...out of this world.         Patrice Lawrence is amongst the greatest voices for young people      writing today. I'm honoured to be a peer of hers.' -      Alex Wheatle, author of Cane Warriors      'BRILLIANT... history and fantasy woven magnificently into a thrilling,      magical adventure' - Sophie Anderson, author of      The House with the Chicken Legs      'A fantastic adventure, packed with rich world building and stunning      elemental magic.' - Peter Bunzl, author of Cogheart      'Wow - The Elemental Detectives is a cracking fantasy.
