The Circus of Adventure
by Enid Blyton (Macmillan, 1952)
audiobook read by Thomas Judd (Bolinda, 2021)
A return to form, albeit predictable in parading out simple, salt-of-the earth circus folk, foreign villains, disguised princes, daring stowings-away, secret passages, and baddies who couldn’t recognise made-up languages or a parrot in the dark to save their lives—all Blyton staples!
