Alfred is on a mission.
He doesn't know exactly what mission he is on until he keeps building and remodeling machinery and new inventions. Finally, something works. Then he gets royalties, having negotiated a contract with the company he works for and sponsorship for an international team event.
The company lock themselves in a contract with Alfred and his rookie bobsled team. He soon builds the world's fastest bobsled from a new alloy no one has ever heard of. Targeted for sabotage by international professional teams who cannot beat Alfred and his rookie team, and Alfred's own company who cannot get out of a contract for paying Alfred and his team royalties for life, Alfred steams on.
His wife Margareta, in their happy castle premises, cheers Alfred on as Alfred himself tries to keep his neighbours happy, reserves an area to keep the greenies contained,
and keeps the council building inspector from crossing the moat to enter his castle grounds.
Alfred has got it all figured out and is on to becoming Alfred the Great.
Richard Stewart is a native of New Zealand. He has worked as an electrician, pilot, and miner. This is his fourth book.
