Jim’s Pterodactyl: And The Tipham Vampire

Satire Fiction, Humour Fiction, Dark

Meet Ollie!

When Caldwell Ellis commissions a ‘find and retrieve’ mission in Papua New Guinea to find Ropen eggs, Jim and Moira find themselves in a bit of a pickle when a cheese-loving Pterodactyl hatches from the egg that Moira inherits on Ellis’ death, along with Ellis’ cottage.
Ollie is a clever soul, who bonds with Jim and Moira and communicates telepathically. Her existence creates all kinds of trouble and adventures for the Tipham crew!

This book is a standalone, however, Jim’s Revenge is Jim and Moira’s origin story and well worth a read!
