Deze serie volgt de ongelooflijke avonturen en wilde uitvindingen van een briljante, zij het ietwat excentrieke, wetenschapper. Samen met zijn jonge assistenten raakt hij regelmatig verwikkeld in gevaarlijke, vaak kosmische situaties die de wereld bedreigen. Het is een verhaal vol fantasie, humor en actie, ontworpen om zowel jonge lezers als volwassenen te bekoren.
Dr. Proktor is een krankzinnige professor., Nou ja, zo goed als. Eigenlijk sis hij een oude uitvinder die wacht op zijn grote doorbraak. Op een dag komt zijn droom uit. Samen met zijn buurmeisje Lise en haar vreemde vriendje Bulle slaagt hij erin een superkrachtig schetenpoeder te maken. Zelfs de NASA heeft er belangstelling voor! Maar als de gemene tweeling Truls en Trym Thrane er lucht van krijgen, gaat het mis.
The Fart Powder was such a successful invention that Doctor Proctor, Nilly, and Lisa couldn’t stop there. Next up: a time-travelling bathtub. You just hop in, lather up the Time Soap, and wish for where you’d like to go. Doctor Proctor has plans for this new invention. You see, he lost his true love years ago, when Juliette Margarine married an evil count. The good Doctor has never quite gotten over this, and he's going back to change it. But when things go wrong, it's up to Nilly and Lisa to travel back in time to right all wrongs and reunite the two lovebirds. Nothing is quite so simple in a Jo Nesbo book. Enter a herd of hippos, a scheming assistant, and Time Soap that keeps going awry, sending Nilly and Lisa to the storming of the Bastille! Fortunately, as in every Jo Nesbo book, the Fart Powder solves everything.
Doctor Proctor, Nilly and Lisa are back in their third adventure from Jo Nesbo, the bestselling Norwegian author of all time!
When a Russian billionaire robs the Norwegian Gold Reserve and melts the last remaining gold bar into the Premier Soccer League trophy, it's up to Doctor Proctor, Nilly and Lisa to get the trophy and save Norway. But with a failed break-in attempt into the billionaire's subterranean gold-melting lab and the Norwegian Gold Reserve Inspection only three days away, the only way to retrieve the trophy is to win it back. Hoping to prevent national panic and uproar, Nilly and Lisa join the Rotten Ham soccer team and use the Fartonaut Powder, along with a handful of Doctor Proctor's other wacky inventions, to try and lead the hopeless underdog team to victory before time runs out.
Can Doctor Proctor, Nilly, and Lisa save Christmas in this new fart-tastically funny adventure from worldwide bestselling author Jo Nesb�? When the king of Norway sells the rights to Christmas to Mr Thrane, it looks like the holidays aren't going to be very merry. Mr Thrane says that the only people who can celebrate are those who buy 10,000 crowns worth of presents from his department store. For anyone who doesn't - or can't - spend that much, it's no tree, no presents, no carols, and no Christmas pudding. Doctor Proctor, Nilly, and Lisa aren't going to take this sitting down! They're going to find Santa and save Christmas. All they need is a sleigh, flying reindeer, some time travel soap, and, of course, some fart powder! PRAISE for the Doctor Proctor's Fart Powder series: 'This terrific book will make you laugh, and cherish your friends' - James Patterson 'plenty of toilet humour, and general silliness that kids love' - The Bookseller 'wickedly entertaining' - The Big Issue 'Lashings of silliness, quirkiness, self-deprecating humour, and a rollicking plot...' - TheBookbag.co.uk 'Fuelled by farts, this is fast-paced and a delightfully ridiculous adventure' - Julia Eccleshare on lovereading4kids.co.uk 'A superb mix of bizarre and wacky with a little bit of off-beat thrown in.

Wenn es nach den Behörden gegangen wäre, hätte es dieses Buch niemals gegeben. Aber die Wahrheit muss endlich ans Licht - ganz egal, wie schlimm sie ist. Denn selbst wenn wir uns das Gegenteil wünschen, so sind sie dennoch dort draußen: Tiere, von denen du noch nie gehört hast. Und denen du nie begegnen möchtest.
