Uncle Scrooge laughed when the mysterious woman offered him one dollar
for one of his dimes. But she might just have the last laugh because the
dime he accidentally sold her was his lucky Number One Dime -- the first
dime he ever earned! -- and now she's about to melt it down for one of
her strange spells! Then Uncle Scrooge gets wind of a big
gold-prospecting contest in Alaska, and he ropes Donald and the boys
into helping him prove he's just as good a prospector now as he was back
when he made his fortune. But the infuriatingly lucky Gladstone Gander
decides he's going to enter the contest, too -- and Gladstone never
loses! And when a mysterious new planet suddenly appears in the sky on a
collision course with Earth, Scrooge, Donald, and the boys are whisked
there -- only to discover it's filled with gold and inhabited by the
ancient Norse gods! But to prevent the imminent collision, Scrooge must
find a way to turn all that gold into iron -- or both planets will be
destroyed! Plus: the oddball inventions of the ever-eccentric Gyro
Gearloose!
Carl Barks delivers another wildly imaginative collection of outrageous
