Unstoppable Brainspin: Seriously Useless Crime Stoppers

Author: Dave Hackett

This is the first book in a new series of novels for children from Dave Hackett, for readers who like their stories silly...but clever.

In the city of Sucktropolis, the SUCS (Super Underage Crime Stoppers) and the POOPS (Perpetrators Of Outrageous Pranks) are at war with each other – the SUCS want the POOPS to stop perpetrating their outrageous pranks. But when Dr Loopitus Brainspin comes to town, searching for his missing fifth banana and threatening to destroy the town with his omniverous goat unless he finds it, they find a common enemy.

'Laugh out loud funny, this book does not suck at all!' D Magazine

'The dry, perfectly timed humour and hilarious illustrations Hackett has produced perfectly complement a highly imaginative and totally bizarre tale reminiscent of . . . Batman and Get Smart.' Kids Book Review

'Hackett's latest maniacal book will delight children who relish the gross factor.' Sunday Herald Sun
