First Edition, Softcover. New. 9780747570158 224 pages. Available Now. Book Description: It just takes one day for Seb's life to fall apart. He is in trouble with school for non-attendance, in trouble with his mother for far too many things to mention, and he has just been dumped by his girlfriend. So instead of trying to sort out any of these troubles, Seb takes off for the day, to central London, where things soon start to unravel. Seb awakes a few days later in a hospital bed, lucky to be alive after having got into a fight, and having been saved by an unknown character. But who is that person, and why did he step in to save Seb? Soon Seb is convinced that he has a guardian angel and he is determined to find out who he is. But searching for a guardian angel is no easy task! Wonderfully vivid and remarkably atmospheric, this is a novel for all young adults who want to read books with bite. : Review: 'Marks's grip on reality is so good that the seraphic elements are swept along with total conviction' -- Sunday Telegraph: Like Seb's own life, How it Works gets better and better as it goes along. This book has a soul' -- Philip Ardagh, Guardian: A great blend of well-observed contemporary life and a little magic realism. Seb is an engaging and realistic character' -- Observer : About the Author: Graham Marks lives in London where he works as a journalist as well as an author.
