The 1,000-year-old Boy

There are stories about people who want to live forever.

 

This is not one of those stories.

 

This is a story about someone who wants to stop…

 

Alfie Monk is like any other nearly teenage boy – except he’s 1,000 years old and can remember the last Viking invasion of England.

 

Obviously no one believes him.

 

So when everything Alfie knows and loves is destroyed in a fire, and the modern world comes crashing in, Alfie embarks on a mission to find friendship, acceptance, and a different way to live…

 

… which means finding a way to make sure he will eventually die.
