Captain Bluebear is a bear with blue fur, a creature as unique as
the fantastic adventures he undergoes. Unlike cats, which have only
nine lives, bluebears have twenty-seven. This is fortunate, because
our hero is forever avoiding disaster by a paw's breadth. In this
remarkable book, Captain Bluebear tells the story of his first
thirteen-and-a-half lives spent on the mysterious continent of
Zamonia, where intelligence is an infectious disease and water
flows uphill, where headless giants roam deserts made of sugar, and
where only Captain Bluebear's courage and ingenuity enable him to
escape the dangers that lie in wait for him around every corner. In
company with our indomitable hero, we enter a realm of the
imagination that combines the fantasy of "Lord of the Rings and
"The Neverending Story with the humour of Baron Munchausen - a
wonderland where anything can exist except boredom.
