Plot
Alfred Kropp is a troubled kid whose father left him and his mother had died of cancer. He is stuck with Uncle Farrell and, technically, in a moody position. The psychologist decided that Alfred was very close to going "mad with depression". Uncle Farrell puts Alfred in a football team where he makes second string right guard, or as Alfred puts it, a practice dummy for the first string defense. Later on, Arthur Myers, a billionaire, calls Uncle Farrell for his deal of a lifetime. If Uncle Farrell could receive the Excalibur for him, Arthur Myers would give him a million dollars. Already, this deal sounded suspicious to Alfred, but nothing is compared to the excitement and plot that is hidden in the story. It starts in The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp through to The Thirteenth Skull.
