The Pig Scrolls

The combination of an Ancient Greek setting, together with a leading character who is a vain and cowardly talking pig, makes for an unusual tale.

Packed with mythical characters like Athena and Apollo, plus a piggy anti-hero whose attitude to the whole world is laughably disdainful, the twisting storyline races towards a thrilling and otherworldly climax.

Paul Shipton’s bizarre mix of Greek history, contemporary references and British humour has a unique flavour and, if taken with a pinch of salt, may even teach readers something about Greek mythology!
