When a world-renowned artist approaches Agaton Sax and asks to have his daily illustrations featured in the Byköping Post (the world's smallest newspaper, but also the best) the detective's interest is piqued. Could the detailed patterns and swirls within the pictures hide a secret code? Maybe they will lead to a nefarious plot for Agaton to foil... But is a 113-year-old man really behind it all? And will Sweden's greatest crimefighter get an opportunity to put an old acquaintance back behind bars where he belongs? It's yet another fascinating case for the one and only Agaton Sax! The Agaton Sax series of books were first published in Sweden, later being translated into English and printed with illustrations by much-loved artist Quentin Blake (perhaps best known for his work on the books of Roald Dahl). The English translations became immensely popular, achieving the status of the most re-issued mystery & detective series in the history of Nordic children's literature. Now, after many years out of print, Oak Tree Books is proud to publish the entire Agaton Sax series, newly translated and illustrated for the next generation. This new collection includes the eleventh book which has never before been released in English.

Frankly, Agaton Sax should know better than to go on vacation. At least, this time, he's managed to enjoy some rest and relaxation without stumbling into a criminal conspiracy. On the way home however, it's a different story... from a slow train through Brosnia to a castle in Edinburgh and onwards to a motorboat speeding across the North Sea, Agaton Sax is up against a criminal mastermind who is almost - but not quite - as clever as he is. And there's garlic. Far too much garlic.

The daily comic strip Get Fuzzy is cartoonist Darby Conley's wry portrait of single life with pets. In the Treasury of the Lost Litter Box, the gang is back to endure the trials and tribulations typical of any family . . . more or less. At the center of the mischief is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and the guardian of Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in their eccentric household, while Satchel is a gentle, sensitive pooch who struggles to remain neutral, almost guaranteeing he'll wind up on the receiving end of whatever trouble Bucky has cooked up. Treasury of the Lost Litter Box is a compilation of the Get Fuzzy misadventures previously chronicled in Ignorance, Thy Name Is Bucky and Dumbheart. Treasury of the Lost Litter Box is perfect for fans of the comic strip and a hilarious, if not-so-gentle introduction for new fans.
