Then Titus, the son in the family, decides to clone his sister Pandora and the results of his experiments in cloning at quite horrific. Soon the inn is crawling with horrible little pink clones who have a mind of their own and who won't do what they are told. Unbeknownst to the Strega-Borgias the man whom they have hired to work on their roof is not in the slightest bit interested in making their home liveable again. Quite the contrary - he is determined to make the house so inhospitable that the Strega-Borgias will be dying to get the house and its very valuable land off their hands.

In the pay of a local developer who wants the Strega-Borgia land for himself, the roofer begins to wreck havoc in the house. One thing that he doesn't realise is that taking on the Strega-Borgia family can be very dangerous to ones health. In fact it can even be fatal. This deliciously funny book will have readers laughing out loud at the terrible situations and messes that this wonderful family gets itself into.

My favourite scene in the book absolutely has to be when Ffup realises something very important Dec 13, Mia rated it really liked it Shelves: This book was hilarious and actually had me laughing out loud.

The plot was gripping the whole way through and there were so many twists and turns in the book.

It definitely isn't a sequel to Pure Dead Magic, so you don't have to read it before reading this book. I would recommend it to people of any age, but is aimed at younger people year olds. However anyone can enjoy it, even if it is just a simple read during a slump. A delightful, comical follow-up to Pure Dead Magic Between miniature pink clones, an evil real estate developer stealthily destroying their home, and sundry other inconveniences, the Strega-Borgias are muddling on with the help of Flora, right up until the surprise in store for Titus at the end when he receives a letter informing him that he has inherited his grandfather's fortune, setting him at odds with Pandora.

This was a great little book even though i am not the intended audience i could still appreciate that it was a great read. It had drama family mythical creatures everything a child could want in a story. I found myself loving the characters especially the kids as i could relate to the siblings bickering with one another and having younger siblings than myself. IT was well written for a children's book and had great detail i could picture everything i was reading in my mind.

Another wacky and wonderful adventure with the Strega-Borgias. Running afoul of some nasty, greedy contractors and developers, the family holes up in the local hotel. But being away from home doesn't prevent children, parents and beasties from getting into all sorts of trouble. Gliori's writing is whimsical and her characters are lovable and strange. Pure Dead Wicked is a quick read, but a thoroughly amusing one.

May 13, Christy rated it did not like it Shelves: This series is written in a funny candor and we enjoyed the first book. This one was odd. Jan 05, Cindy rated it it was ok. This is a young adult audio and it was weird. Maybe it would've been better to read the book, but I couldn't wait until it was over. The content was similar to Harry Potter - magical etc.

Aug 20, Karla rated it liked it Shelves: I thought the vegetarian carnavore part a stay-over from the first book was pretty funny, but the book kind of lost me as far as interest goes. Don't plan to read the next 4 books in the series.

Nov 23, Linda rated it it was ok. This is one of 2 Pure Dead books on tape that I got at a library sale. Pleasant to listen to in the car. If I didn't have so many other things to read and listen to, I would possibly check out the rest of the series. Aug 17, Amber rated it liked it.

These books are cute children's novels.

I love kid's books. I read a lot of them. Expect to see more of them here. Re-visiting the whole series, since I haven't read it in years. Not quite as good as I remember, but still good. Jun 11, Geri rated it it was amazing Shelves: I love this series! Oct 02, Angel Zheng added it.
