Mr Oily is a delightful four year-old boy who likes nothing better than taking mechanical things apart and putting them back together again - with varying levels of success.
Mr Oily, as he is affectionately known, normally has blotches of oil and dirt all over his clothes, together with a rather grubby face. He has a kind heart and loves to go on whirlwind adventures with his fellow petrol head buddy, Grease Monkey. Buy now.
A teenage girl stumbles out of an alley in Ottawa, concussed, with
no memory of her life. Fleeing sword-wielding operatives with
inexplicable mental abilities, she soon learns that her name is
Zoe, and that she not only possesses the same abilities, but is
extraordinarily skilled in martial arts. As she scours Toronto for
clues about her identity, she finds others like her, and is given
refuge at the Academy, an international school for Telepaths. As
fragments of her childhood return, she begins to suspect that she
may not like who she once was-that she may be part of a shadowy
organization more powerful than anyone suspects, and that she will
soon be swept up in events that are thousands of years in the
making.
