Eddie and the Gang With No Name is a young adult trilogy by Colin Bateman, beginning with Reservoir Pups in 2003. The series follows Eddie, a twelve-year-old whose life is upended when his father leaves and his mother takes a nursing job at the Royal Victoria Hospital in a rough part of Belfast. Eddie quickly gets drawn into the world of the Reservoir Pups, a local gang of kids operating out of the hospital grounds.

Bateman brings the same sharp humor he is known for in his adult fiction to this series, though scaled for a younger audience. Bring Me the Head of Oliver Plunkett (2004) and The Seagulls Have Landed (2013) continue Eddie’s adventures with escalating stakes and absurdity. The books are fast reads with a distinctly Belfast flavor, blending street-level adventure with Bateman’s gift for comic timing.
