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 up. Too bad his dad is Harald the Skull-Splitter, the roughest and toughest Viking of them all.
Vikings far and wide are traveling to the great Fire Festival where they'll compete to become ultimate champion by creating dazzling fire displays. Chief Harald is determined to be victorious but it seems as if Thorfinn has ruined their chances against rival Viking Chief Magnus the Bone-Breaker, until he remembers a story about a once-legendary dragon, now in hiding�
Can Thorfinn and his ragtag crew track down the dreadful dragon and persuade her to help them put on a winning performance?
'Morgan's loosely drawn ink–and–wash cartoons add appropriately comical notes, as does the dialogue... and occasional outsized belch... Brains trump brawn every time – at least for this horn–helmed peacemaker.'
– Kirkus Reviews on Thorfinn and the Terrible Treasure
'It is a story filled with humor that will appeal to young readers... Readers who like the graphic novel/fiction book format will like the cartoon like illustrations throughout the book. Reluctant readers will find the format and short chapters accessible.'
