When famine threatens a small fishing village in 19th-century Norway, seventeen-year-old Lars and his five-year-old brother, Torvald, are sent to live with their Uncle Anders in Dakota Territory in America. This puts them not only in the New World, but in a new world where they must learn not only the ways of the Scandinavian immigrant community, but the ways of the nearby town.

But that crazy horse is about to become far more...

Out west in Northam during the reign of Greenley the Third, Renzo's main job is to count birds for the government. He has no idea that his post was originally set up to protect the bridge down the hill from his cabin - but the Subterran civilization living more or less under his feet knows. And they're tired of living in hiding. Julia, who lives across the river from Renzo, is a government cattle herder. She is about to make Renzo's life very complicated. Neither of them knows anything about their unseen neighbors, or the civilization the Subterrans have kept alive despite decades of...

When Lars, aged 17, heads from Norway to Dakota Territory in America with his little brother in tow, he has no idea that he's about to embark on adventures that people will happily be recounting for generations - not least the story of how he bought his first horse, who turns out to be an oddball scaredy-cat.

And then there was the bear attack. As the modern day person who narrates...

When he is 17, Norwegian fisherman Lars is sent to live with his uncle in Dakota Territory in America, at least until a famine lets up a little back home. He takes his little brother along, and the two of them must deal with a world quite unlike anything they could have imagined, while also coming to grips with the challenges of growing up. And falling in love. And surviving calamity (not to mention embarrassment - like the time Lars bought his first horse, which turned out to be a strange beast that made him a laughingstock). Some of their adventures and misadventures are recounted by a...

Two girls adopt a stray dog, only to find out that it likes to travel through time, and take children along. It doesn't help matters that Kisa's parents and Morgan's mom don't get along, or that Morgan's mom hates dogs, or that neither girl knows much about history - at least not yet.

Once again, Triple-O Five and company are finding that the worst enemies a spy can have might be in his own government, even his own agency. His best help, on the other hand, might come from feral street boys in Paris, football players, and a doctor kicked out of medical practice for offending the PC police. Meanwhile, Durand must contend with the hazards of fatherhood, not least of which is a beautiful daughter who is drawing suitors left and right, including one of his young colleagues, who, alas, is a sniper. Not to mention not Catholic. Other than that, he seems to be a nice kid. For a...
