'Barry Trotter is 22 and has never left the Hogwash School of Magic - there's been no need; after all J G Rollin's books about him have made him a millionaire and Barry is perfectly happy to while away his days as a perpetual (loaded) student. The hordes of Muddles who hang around outside Hogwash desperate to see him, touch him, are a bit of pain but he can deal with that. But then comes news that Hollywood is planning a film of Rollin's first book about Barry. And they all know what that means: loss of creative control; cheap merchandising; millions more Muddles swarming over Hogwash. Barry agrees a plan with Bumblemore; the film must be stopped'. This now famous parody of Harry Potter is collectable in its own right, now a cult novel, acquiring a status not unlike the real thing. This is the British hardback first edition, and it looks new. Hard to find!.
