That’s when he’s not, of course, being psychically drawn to help those in peril. Sometimes, in fact, he even goes right through them. Nor is Odd always successful in avoiding the bodies, since, as they say, he sees dead people. Acting to save the life of a mysterious young woman named Annamaria, he dodges death and a hazardous pile of ever-increasing bodies while the clock ticks down to the finale.Įxcept that the clocks don’t tick at all, they’ve all been stopped. Narrated by Odd himself, the book covers the battle that he wages with bad guys wishing to wreak havoc on the free world.

Ogres are like onions, the great philosopher Shrek once said.
