Book description
Vulgar's new teacher is called Otto the Bone-Cruncher and he's a
proper viking! Vulgar can't wait for the school trip, to learn all
about hunting and exploring and having adventures. But after a very
VERY long walk and a tea of roasted slugs, Vulgar's not so chipper.
It's getting dark, and he's a bit spooked. There are trolls in these hills...
We'd like to tell you all sorts of things about Odin Redbeard. We'd
like to tell you he's a Viking who likes to pillage in his spare time.
We'd like to tell you he lives on a fjord where he fishes from his
longboat. We'd like to tell you that he wears a horned helmet when he
goes down to the supermarket. But we can't tell you anything: Odin
Redbeard is - you've guessed it - a pseudonym. His true identity must be
kept secret. Believe me, if we could tell you, you'd be the first to
know. But we can't. So please don't ask us to.
