James Munkers: Super Freak

James Munkers isn’t the heroic type.

He lacks strength, swagger and social skills. He can’t safely traverse the schoolyard, let alone a battlefield. And he might be going mad, because he’s started seeing glowing blue creatures around the place.

But one night, James is attacked and a strange power bursts out of him. He is thrust into a world of magic, danger and sharp, pointy weapons that no one in their right mind would let James handle.

But then no one seems to be in their right mind. Because they’re all saying that James is destined to save the world.

 

James Munkers: Freak of Nature

Trips to the Lake District are lovely, aren’t they?

There’s the tiny bungalow crammed with every conceivable family member. There’s the lake to drown in, and hills to stub your toes on. And the spontaneous ninjas are really bringing the scenery to life.

James is on holiday, but weirdness doesn’t take vacations. The end of the world is nigh, his powers seem to be going haywire, and things keep popping up out of nowhere and attacking him. He might have half a chance of dealing with everything if only his meddling family would stay out of the way.

But his family are more involved in the strange events than James realises.

 

James Munkers: Time Freak

James Munkers is out of time.

He’s supposed to be looking after the house while his parents are away, but the magic-fuelled kids in the bedroom upstairs keep manifesting elephants in the living room.

He’s supposed to be attending his last year of school, but the headmaster is evil and there’s a crack in the fabric of reality near the main gate.

He’s supposed to be saving the world, but the dimensions are breaking down, the Hoarders are poised to attack, and the Shadow Figure draws ever closer.

James needs more time.

But when he unexpectedly travels back to the nineteenth century, he gets more time than he bargained for. And that still might not be enough to fix what – or who – he finds there.

James Munkers: Freak Out

James Munkers has some explaining to do.

Like why he’s wandering the apocalypse-torn world with a psychopath on a string.

Or why the dimensions are falling apart and he’s doing nothing to fix them.

And who caused the apocalypse in the first place…

But he can’t explain any of that, because he’s far from home, separated from his family and friends who think he’s turned to the dark side. And no wonder: James is protecting their greatest enemy. And what are they going to say when James tells them the prophecy is broken? That everything they believe is a lie?

All in all, the end of the world isn’t going very well. James needs a hero.
