Are you ready for adventure?
Dinosaurs in Reykjavík / The Robot Attack / Visitors from Outer Space /
The Superhero-Dimension / The Surprise Ending

 

In these crazy and fun filled books we follow the adventures of an 11 year old wanna-be scientist called Aevar. Along with his trusty sidekick-cat, Einstein, he will hatch dinosaur eggs, attend a school filled with some very dangerous robots, meet aliens that have almost definitely arrived to attack his home town and visit another dimension where everybody is a superhero - except for him!


In every book there is an underlying scientific theme, helping the reader learn something without realising it: Dinosaurs in Reykjavik - Geology. The Robot Attack - Programming. Visitors from Outer Space - Astronomy. The Superhero-Dimension - The Multiverse Theory. The Surprise Ending - How different branches of science can be used to work together. 

 

"I love that the main-characters excel at other things than sports. They are nerds and it gives those that are interested in computer games, programming or science someone to look up to."​
