The third part of the Charlie Fry Series is here…
Hall Park Magpies are rubbish.
They are bottom of the league, cannot score goals and have not managed to win this season. But they have a new player: football boy wonder Charlie Fry.
Bullied out of Hall Park Rovers by evil Chell Di Santos, the budding football superstar – who has a magic gift so he never misses – now faces his biggest challenge yet.
With Charlie in their team and a mysterious book that keeps predicting unlikely victories, the future is suddenly looking a lot brighter for Magpies.
Can Charlie save his new team?
Will the book’s magic last long enough to escape relegation?
Or will his enemies finally finish Charlie’s career for good?
