Description
The Floods are back in their rightful place as rulers of Transylvania Waters and there is an enormous amount to do to bring the country out of the Dark Ages and into the twenty-first century. What does a country need more than anything to become part of the modern world? Well, it needs tons of things, including socks, PlayStations, genetically modified food and 73 varieties of sausage, but above all else it needs maps. Winchflat's new wife, Maldegarde Ankle, has been appointed Transylvania Waters's first ever Official Map Maker. What she discovers during her cartographic travels will astound, terrify, amuse and intrigue you. In remote caves she will find ancient fossils with enough DNA for Winchflat to re-create long-dead creatures. And in even more remote caves she will find the original inhabitants of Transylvania Waters - a long-lost race of Neolithic Accountants...
