Battle on my Cousin!

13th Street V01 Battle of the Bad-Breath Bats by David Bowels

December 21, 2020 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

There are three kids on the cover of this book. One is being carried off by a giant bat. I think it is safe to say, when one sees this, they can assume this is going to be a fantasy novel. I would even assume that it would be a fantasy mystery (after all why is there a giant bat, why are the people running and why is the girl wearing a yellow duck floaty around her waist?).
