Urgum the Axe Man
by Kjartan Poskitt
illustrated by Philip Reeve

Urgum the Axeman is the fiercest barbarian that the Forgotten Desert has ever known — a legendary hero who once chewed a live bull to death. But one day, Urgum returns home to find that not only has his wife redecorated his cave and installed a bathroom, but she’s also produced a ten-year-old daughter. And, as Urgum will find out, Little Molly is a barbarian kid with attitude.
