David Solomons is utterly brilliant, and My Cousin is a Time Traveller is a work of comedy genius. It’s full of pitch-perfect observational humour, with a plot that magnifies real fears (machines taking over the world) to ridiculous and hilarious levels (led by toasters and a washer-dryer*); and it packs more and better superhero in-jokes into one chapter than the Marvel film franchise has managed in its entire oeuvre.
And there’s a terrifically exciting story too. Simply the best entertainment to be had between two covers.
*after all, there’s more technology in the average washing machine than there was in the Apollo space programme that sent a rocket to the Moon.
Luke's dad has bought a lot of gadgets recently and not one of them works as it's supposed to. Maybe it's because a machine-from-the-future is stalking Bromley, playing havoc with all the tech and trying to stop Star Lad going on a date. Could this be the Rise of the Machines? Luke knows what he must do - he just needs his fellow SCARF members to help, or it will be the end of everything...

David Solomon s is the award-winning author of the My Brother is a Superhero series. He spent much of his childhood playing with Star Wars Agures and trying to make toy lightsabers jump into his hand using only the power of the Force (and a rubber band).

He now lives in Dorset with his two children, Luke and Lara.
