This book contains the complete series based on the Valentino Voto saga. 1) The Incredible Journey of a Neapolitan Puffin. The novel takes place in two main cities: Naples, Italy; and Reykjavik, Iceland. Valentino Voto, a bright Italian guy, is feeling bored and dissatisfied. While attempting to finish his Ph.D. in cultural anthropology, he comes across a mysterious Icelandic lady, Gudrun. The events that followed changed his life forever: a series of unexplained episodes, precognitive dreams, occult and pagan beliefs, elves and other mythical beings, winter night landscape and polar northern lights...Is Gudrun really the girl of his dreams or a ghost? 2) Back to Thule. In 168 BC the Roman legions conquered Macedon, putting an end to the Antigonid dynasty in the Third Macedonian War. Apollonius was one of the 1,000 Achaean nobles who were transported to Rome as hostages. The Battle of Örlygsstaðir, the biggest battle fought on Icelandic soil, took place on August 21st, 1238. Gissur orvaldsson, a medieval Icelandic chieftain of the Haukd lir family clan, emerged victorious after a short battle. Naples, 28 February 2018. Valentino Voto decides to come back to Iceland with his new friend Marco. He wants to understand to what extent his first journey to that island existed only in his imagination. What do Apollonius, Gissur and Valentino have in common? How their epochs are connected? And if Gudrun, Valentino's platonic love, does exist in reality? Everything seems to revolve around the legend of Fenrir, a monstrous wolf of Norse mythology. 3) The Diabolical Miracles of Vesturb r. Valentino Voto and his friend Marco Oddur decide to spend the evening in a Reykjavík club. Marco is strange, almost unrecognizable. But what will happen shortly thereafter in his villa in Suðurgata? Why doesn't Lena, his fiancée, answer the phone? Autumn is coming on the island with its decadent atmosphere and a diabolical miracle is about to upset the unchanging quiet of the Vesturb r neighborhood. Valentino will be drawn into a swirling and inexorable plot that will involve him in occult practices of seven thousand years old: sometimes evil comes from the past.
