The Eye Of
NEPTUNE
Jules Verne meets Young Bond – with sharks! Assassins, espionage, giant squid, and mind-blowing adventure combine as one boy sets out to rescue his mentor. Prince Dakkar, son of an Indian rajah, has issues with authority. Expelled from the world’s finest schools, he is sent to an unconventional educator, Count Oginski. Dakkar plans his escape immediately. But something about the Count intrigues him, including a top-secret project involving a submarine, which he shares with Dakkar. But others are interested in the Count’s invention and what it might achieve and, when masked men kidnap the Count, leaving Dakkar for dead, he doesn’t know who was responsible. It could have been British Intelligence, or perhaps a sinister figure known only as Cryptos. Either way, Dakkar is determined to rescue the Count. Taking the prototype submarine, he sets off for adventure . . .
Cue shark attack, giant sea creatures, spies and an evil megalomaniac. From his undersea refuge, Dakkar plans to take them all on . . . with a bit of help from a Girl.

LIZARD LORD

It’s a world populated by dinosaurs, giant cavemen and the evil Count Cryptos. The ruthless megalomaniac is eager to unleash the denizens of this underground land that time forgot on the unsuspecting allied troops at the battle of Waterloo. But, as ever, Dakkar isn’t sure just who he can trust or even if he’s on the right side! More intrigue, more twists and turns and more exploding dinosaurs than you can shake a sabre at in the second of the outrageous adventures of a young Captain Nemo.
