Miss Blaine's Prefect and the Weird Sisters - (The Prefect's Adventures) by Olga Wojtas

Book Synopsis

Her latest mission? Head to 11th-century Scotland, cozy up to Macbeth and Lady M, prevent them from murdering Duncan. In the ordinary course of things, this would be a doddle. But then there are the witches, who prove remarkably quick to take offense. And the business of being turned into a mouse. And the fact that the mission is in truth threefold. One, keep Duncan alive and kicking; two, correct the historical record and lay bare the ludicrous lies introduced by that silly Shakespeare play; and three, burnish the honor of the Marcia Blaine School for Girls, the finest institution of pedagogy in the greater Edinburgh area. Can she do it? Of course she can! NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A LIBRARIAN!

Review Quotes

"Readers will have a rollicking good time" -Publishers Weekly, starred review

"The premise of Miss Blaine's Prefect and the Vampire Menace may be far-fetched, but it works perfectly. Wojtas has honed her skills still further since Shona's first excursion; the jokes are funnier, the wit is wittier, the pace is pacier...even the vampire is a delight." -The Edinburgh Reporter

"Effortlessly blends together a number of genres.... Smart, funny and all-round good company, wherever Shona goes, readers will eagerly follow." -The Scotsman

"This absolutely delightful time-traveling murder mystery is perfect for fans of Jasper Fforde and Genevieve Cogman's "Invisible Library" series as well as Russian history fans who enjoy stories with a sharp sense of humor." -Library Journal
