Meet the Fantoras... Filomena, the granny with the power in her knitting needles. Auntie Varvara, the veggie vampire on the lookout for love. Bianca, the girl who can make any party come to life—literally! And me, Ozymandias, the Keeper of the files, Narrator of this story, and important family member. ...You've never met a family quite like this before.

Every member of the Fantora family is a little unusual and possesses a very special gift. Grandmother Filomena can predict the future; her son, Eddie, can grow anything; her daughter-in-law, Rosie, is a cook in a million who can also fly; while Auntie Varvara is a vegetarianvampire in search of Romance. The children, Bianca, Marco, and Francesca, also have strange powers which they use in a variety of ways, often with unexpected and hilarious results.All this is narrated in his own inimitable style by Ozymandias, the rather superior cat who lives with the family.
