He's been warned, but Erasmus James (Raz
for short) is determined to be the first to test his dad's
new invention: the Galactic ZAPP Machine!
Faster than a
burp, Raz zaps across the galaxy to a weird world where

harmony.
At least they all did ... until Raz makes a deal
with wacky King Reginald that could lead to galactic war!

What they say about this book |
|
|

"A world of
wonder, surprise and great fun awaits readers of Erasmus
James and the Galactic Zapp Machine. DC Green has created a
joyous comic funfare ride of a book... A brilliant debut
novel from a clever and inventive writer. Kids will love
this one."
- Bill Condon, CBCA Honor Book of the
Year winner.
"An action-packed,
humorous adventure which will appeal to upper-primary aged
readers. There are plenty of laugh out loud moments,
interspersed with action and some gentle messages about
family, friendship and even self-belief. Plenty of fun."
- Sally Murphy, Aussie Reviews.

"A rollicking,
fart-filled yarn."
- Surfer Magazine (USA).
"I normally
wouldn't like something with so much farting in it, but I
love-love-loved this book. It's kind of Hitch-hikers Guide
crossed with Narnia crossed with Black Beauty and the
Goodies. I laughed, I cried, I worried about the author's
mental health... Much like that muddy pothole on my
grandparents' driveway, Erasmus James and the Galactic Zapp
Machine is a lot deeper than it looks."
- Emma Hardman, 2006 ABC Fiction
Award runner-up.
