Prepare yourself for the wrath of the Norsemen! That is, if you don't
mind and it's not too inconvenient...
Everyone knows Vikings are ruthless barbarians whose idea of a good time
involves pillaging, plundering and feasting. But Thorfinn is no ordinary
Viking! He is always polite and happily offers to wash the dirty dishes.
Too bad his dad is Harald the Skull-Splitter, Village Chief and the
roughest and toughest Viking of them all.
The king of Norway is coming to visit Indgar village and Thorfinn is
named Head Chef for the greatest feast the village has ever seen.
Apparently the king has a taste for exotic fish, but he's also been
known to catapult chefs who displease him into the sea! Thorfinn sets
sail for Orkney with a ragtag crew to visit his Uncle Rolf and learn how
to cook and catch fish. But it seems a poisoner is at large and he has
his eyes on the poisson...
Thorfinn the Nicest Viking is a funny, illustrated, action-packed
series for young readers which bridges the gap between Horrid Henry
and Diary of a Wimpy Kid, set in a world where manners mean nothing
and politeness is pointless!
