Just William's Luck

Product Information

Having been an avid William Brown fan when I was a child, it has been quite nostalgic collecting the whole series. If reading William at age 75, and finding it has all the fun it had when the reader was 12 or 13, either the reader has frozen into childhood, or the book has a glorious and undying humour despite the changes brought about over fifty years.

He has been described by some as a seer for his ability to tell us not only where we are but where we might be heading. From the cover: “Another rollicking story of William and his Outlaws battling valiantly with the problems of life.I kept thinking that I would be able to find the time to record one but then something would always get in between me and the camera (quite often that would actually happen in the case of my children). Now as famous on radio and audio as they are in print, the adventures of that irrepressible and ageless schoolboy William Brown have been delighting both young and old for decades. Soon the gang have planned a midnight haunting to scare off old monkey face from the big house on the hill - after all, where else will they find a home for the happy young couple? That futuristic cover, the blurb mentioning cryogenics; this is all about man’s wish to extend life into the future, perhaps to avoid death at all.
