I know that I’ve put The Treasure Hunters on the list two weeks running now, but things just keep coming up! It’s probably about half-finished at this point so maybe this week will be the week!

If you like Blyton: Six in a Caravan by Bridget Mackenzie

Apparently there is to be yet another Blyton continuation title, coming out next year. Five and the Forgotten Treasure focuses on some new children solving a mystery that somehow has something to do with George and the original Five.

Have you heard about the unsolved mystery of the Famous Five? An incredible new story by bestselling author Chris Smith, inspired by Enid Blyton’s The Famous Five series and featuring original and new characters.

When Fran, Tom, Maddy and Gilbert the dog stay with Professor George Kirrin for the holidays, they soon find themselves caught up in a robbery. Professor George will have to tell them about her past and the unfinished mystery of the Famous Five, if they’re ever going to catch the thief…

The Famous Five by Enid Blyton was one of Chris Smith’s favourite series as a child. Now, this bestselling author weaves the action, adventure and danger of this thrilling and exciting world into a brand-new story, perfect for every generation of readers. Join the adventure!

Well, you know I’ll end up reading it… but will I like it? That’s less likely.

There’s no cover as yet, but hopefully we’ll get something decent! Hopefully someone like Ruth Palmer, who can actually draw human beings.
