reviewed The Ghost of Thomas Kempe on
"James and his family have recently moved to an old cottage in the village of Ledsham, Oxfordshire. There are strange sounds at night sometimes, but thats only to be expected with old houses, right? What is perhaps not to be expected is the fact that James keeps finding notes signed by one Thos. Kempe Esq. Sorcerer, who seems to consider him his apprentice.

At first, James thinks that someone is pulling his leg but who could it be? And things get complicated when his parents reach the same conclusion he did: someone is playing a trick, and that someone can only be James. Before he gets into further trouble, James has to find a way to pacify the ghost of Thomas Kempe."
