Those Giants

spills and thrills, Norse nonsense, plenty of action and humour …

RM, Brisbane, Australia

Karl, Finch and Erika discover telling lies is the new sport of the day. This time, the new school principal could be a fake. A tooth takes rottenness to a new level.

Norse giants invade the sewer, and a Viking with nine fingernails wants revenge. Karl, best friend Finch, and 21st-century newbie Erika chase answers. To catch them, they’ll need some lies of their own.
