Synopsis
In this sweeping and inventive debut novel that's perfect for fans of Roald Dahl, Neil Gaiman, and Tim Burton, a prodigal inventor flees his home to find his destiny. In the humdrum town of Moormouth, Walter Mortinson's unusual inventions cause nothing but trouble. After one of his contraptions throws the town into chaos, Walter's mother demands he cut the nonsense and join the family mortuary business. Far off on Flaster Isle, famed inventor Horace Flasterborn plans to take Walter under his wing, just as he did Walter's genius father decades ago. When a letter arrives by unusual means offering Walter an apprenticeship, it isn't long before Walter decides to flee Moormouth to meet his destiny. Walter runs away in the family hearse along with Cordelia, the moody girl next door with one eye and plenty of secrets. Together they journey through a strange landscape of fish-people, giantess miners, and hypnotized honeybees in an adventure that will not only reveal the truth about Walter's past, but direct his future., Against the wishes of his mortician mother, 12-year-old prodigal inventor Walter Mortinson and Cordelia, the moody girl next door, take a hearse on a road trip to meet legendary inventor Flasterborn, who once mentored Walter's long-dead father.

    The product that was described in the listing was not the item that I received, but instead a cheaper, knockoff version of the product. While that was obviously disappointing, I did have a good experience with the seller on returning the item. They were quick to respond to my issue, recognize where the mistake had been made, and created zero hassle for me to return the product. For the situation that we were both presented with, it was appreciated that the seller made it right.

    This seller provided the best purchase experience I have ever had. Anywhere. Amazing customer service. I received the item sooner than expected, but unfortunately, it was defective. I contacted Joey with pictures of the issue. I expected a lengthy process, but NOPE, Joey rapidly rectified the situation. I HIGHLY recommend this seller. Very prompt, honest, and reputable. I will seek out JoeyBay1980 for any future purchases before I look elsewhere. Stress-free and enjoyable experience.

    Seller cl;aimed unit was working fine, it was not. Motor would not run. Buyer presented a very reasonable way to rectify the problem, replied with I can't afford to help, blah blah blah! The shipper's packaging was too small for item shipped resulting in the FEDEX package monkeys destroying the fan cooling shroud. Now I'm stuck with an item in need to invest over $200 to make functional.... BEWARE OF THIS SELLER, SELLS DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS, CLAIMS THEY WORKED, NO VIDEO PROOF!!! Buyer BEWARE!!!!!
