Hardback
Description
“Benediktsson’s Icelandic grandfather inspires this ‘mostly true,’ magically buoyed tale of a volcanic excursion that teeters on disaster” – Publishers Weekly Based on a true story, the author humorously recounts the time his grandfather got stranded with a friend on Surtsey, a brand new volcanic island in Iceland.
The adventurers face epic challenges like molten lava, melted eyeglasses and scant supplies before finally getting rescued.
Graphic novel-like layouts and spirited text invite readers to search for the one thing that's not actually true in this thrilling yet light-hearted tale of adventure.
Endnotes include information about volcanoes, Icelandic culture and Norse mythology.
