Synopsis

What's next for Allan Karlsson? Turns out this centenarian has a few more adventures in store....

It all begins with a hot-air-balloon trip and three bottles of champagne. Allan and Julius are ready for some spectacular views, but they’re not expecting to land in the sea and be rescued by a North Korean ship, and they could never have imagined the captain of the ship would be harboring a suitcase full of contraband uranium on a nuclear-weapons mission for Kim Jong-un. Yikes!

Soon Allan and Julius are at the center of a complex diplomatic crisis involving world figures from the Swedish foreign minister to Angela Merkel and President Trump. Needless to say, things are about to get very, very complicated.

Another hilarious, witty, and entertaining novel from best-selling author Jonas Jonasson that will have listeners howling out loud at the escapades and misfortunes of its beloved 100-year-old hero Allan Karlsson and his irresistible sidekick, Julius.
