After an emergency landing in Antarctica, Sam Fox and his younger brother are stranded on a wobbly ice floe. Just when it seems things couldn’t get any worse, a massive creature emerges from the deep. A creature with huge jaws, and rows and rows of teeth … and then there are the pirates …

Action has a new hero - Sam Fox! With a talent for attracting danger, Sam Fox is an expert at getting himself into (and out of) the most extreme situations. This series has a strong appeal with a courageous young hero and exotic settings and has non-stop action and short chapters which will engage reluctant readers.
From a parent:

I dare you to try pre-reading this book and be able to put it down after just one chapter.

About the author:
One of twelve children, Justin grew up on a farm in Otaki, New Zealand. He wrote his first book, a ten page cartoon about his pet turtle, Bubble, when he was nine years old. His next cartoon was about Moriarty, his guinea pig, and filled a complete exercise book. When he was eleven, Justin began writing his first novel, but conked out after 35 pages.
