How to Train Your Dragon #4: How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse

AAAARRGH! Fishlegs has been struck down by the deadly disease of Vorpentitis! The only cure is rare and almost impossible to find – a potato! Can hairy little Viking warrior Hiccup save his sick friend, fight the dastardly Doomfang, dodge the axe of Norbert the Nutjob – and be a hero YET AGAIN? The fourth riotous and totally ridiculous adventure starring our favourite mini Viking hero.

  • Laughs and thrills with our favourite nerdy hero
  • A wonderful mix of humour, suspense and excitement
  • Hilarious writing paired with witty pencil cartoons
  • Hiccup’s books are now major Hollywood films
