The Ghost Rebellion by Pip Ballantine, Tee Morris, Philippa Ballantine
4.0
Actual rating: 3.75546689965126 stars. And stuff.
Wherein our favourite agents of deering-do (aka the Colonial Pepperpot and Dashing Archivist) find themselves dispatched to exotic, friendly (if a little on the brink of war) India. And facing wickedly nefarious Cobras and Badgers and Foxes and Bears and Lions and Dingoes and Tigers and Wolves and Scorpions, oh my. And also good bowel-movements, enemas and squeaky-clean intestines (don't ask). And also also revoltingly inferior supernatural technology (a most scandalous rip-off, if you ask me). And also also also a deliciously evil madman (aka the Atypical Mad Scientist) whose favorite hobby is turning innocent bystanders into ten feet monsters (yay!).
Quite the daunting predicament, you say? Bloody shrimping balderdash, I retort! Unflappable as a pair of lethargic barnacles, our Colonial Pepperpot and Dashing Archivist always are. Provided there is no shortage of The Brew That Cures All Ailments, Be They Physical Or Psychological (TBTCAABTPOP™). Obviously.
· Book 1: Phoenix Rising ★★★★
· Book 2: The Janus Affair ★★★★
· Book 3: Dawn's Early Light ★★★★
· Book 4: The Diamond Conspiracy ★★★
· Book 6: Operation: Endgame ★★★★

“Just another day at the Ministry.” “Shall I go put the kettle on?”
