Es gibt ihn in jeder Kleinstadt: Den verrückten alten Sonderling, der allein in einem unheimlichen Haus lebt, das fast so heruntergekommen ist wie er selbst. In dem englischen Städtchen Thetford ist sein Name John Coal. Aber als die Jungen aus der Nachbarschaft anfangen, dem eigenbrötlerischen Alten immer dreistere Streiche zu spielen, müssen sie feststellen, dass sie sich mit dem Falschen angelegt haben. Denn John Coal hat mehr als eine Leiche im Keller. Zu den dunklen Geheimnissen, die er bewahrt, zählen seine Abenteuer mit Serienmördern, Werwölfen, Dämonen, Geistern und manisch-depressiven Vampiren.

John Coal is the town oddball. Old, crotchety, pungent, and solitary, he lives in a house just as run-down as he. The neighborhood kids take great delight in plaguing him morning, noon, and night, but they’ve chosen the wrong old coot to trifle with this time. He knows where the bodies are buried. He’s been to the outer limits. He is the keeper of dark secrets. Murders, monsters, demons, and vampires: He has seen them all and lived to tell the tale.

John Coal war der typische Sonderling im Ort - ein alter, schrulliger Eigenbrötler, aber ansonsten harmlos. Zumindest war es das, was die Nachbarn von ihm dachten. Bis eines Nachts ein Junge sein dreißig Jahre lang sorgfältig gehütetes Geheimnis enthüllte... Nun ist er auf der Flucht. Die Polizei, die Armee und sogar die Zoos machen Jagd auf ihn. Aber John ist ein alter Hase, wenn es darum geht, den Menschen zu entkommen, und so begibt er sich zusammen mit seiner Vampir-Ziehtochter Rachel in die Wildnis der schottischen Highlands.

He's a bit of a geezer, who, with long-time partner-in-crime Ollie, just about gets by on the money he makes from house-breaking in small-time suburbia.

The King’s Academy for Personal Excellence on the island of Pompolonia is a remarkable school, not only because it is the least accessible in the world but also because it can boast a perfect 100% exam rate. Most Pompolonians learn bottle making at Pomp Comp but those destined for higher things can enjoy the finest education money can buy at ‘The KAPE’. This term, a new student will be inducted. Amy X has been awarded a scholarship by the Queen to make up for the events of last year. The KAPE’s Headmistress is aghast. The students are aghast. Even her friends at Pomp Comp are aghast.

The remote island of Pompolonia is so small that it’s not even on most maps. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in tradition. Each year, a Great Race is run, from the white sands of Octopus Bay, all the way up the mountain to Lake Pomp, a volcanic crater at the island’s summit. All islanders turning 12 are compelled to race. With no exceptions.
