This is the second book in The Weird and Wonderful Adventures of Tim Wessurp, 'Twerp' by Derek Adie Flower. Tim goes on three exciting adventures, accompanied by his old teacher and friend, Owen Ratcliffe, the man who gave Tim the nickname Twerp. His first trip in this series is to Egypt for the Christmas holidays. His aunt Gwen and her husband Bartleby have arranged the trip, something that has Tim quite excited as he's been reading about the pyramids and the power they may contain. Tim's delighted to meet Owen there who's now working for NASA and is also investigating the pyramids. Tim also meets someone who becomes a great friend and ally, Madam Isis of the Ministry of Culture. She is aware of Tim's special gift of ubiquity which enables him to be in several places at once, something even Owen doesn't know about. Tim's other adventures include a visit to Stonehenge and solving the mystery of the Black Madonna which was brought to his girlfriend's parents' villa by an ancestor and seems to have protective powers.
I love The Weird and Wonderful Adventures of Tim Wessurp! The adventures are a lot of fun and are filled with adventure, interesting historical characters, and weird and intriguing information. Author Derek Adie Flower brings the Egyptian gods, Thoth, Isis, Set and Osiris to light in a whole new way that made me determined to continue learning about them, especially Thoth, the god of knowledge, magic and music. The second adventure deals with the mysteries of Stonehenge, another favorite subject for me, in a way that shows the development of the site over the centuries. Who knew learning about the past could be this much fun? I can't wait to see where Tim ends up next and what exploits await him in the next set of Weird and Wonderful Adventures.
