Foster and Parks find themselves cast apart as the first reverberations of a war for the kingdom reach the tiny South Polar island of Drummoc. Wounded within an inch of his life and betrayed by an ally, Parks finds himself in the position of a sensational fugitive, loved and loathed in equal portion. His unearned reputation and survival now rest on the narrow shoulders of low friends. Parks will have to brave a violent storm of sled dogs, bounty hunters, and ghosts who rise from the mines if he means to stand for himself once more.Meanwhile, Foster rides the waves north, an infiltrator on a ship of incomprehensible cutthroats that he must stop at all costs. He soon learns that in a sea of perils, the greatest danger to a crew is the divide among the benches. With the ice closing in around them, they race for their lives to the one place that will make them all rich, unless Foster can turn the dangers in his favor and sink their dreams without going down with the ship. Trapped beneath a looming mutiny and hunted by elite killers of the sea, he despairs to remember his mission within a mission: home, at all costs, even if he has to go alone.…

Learn all about the traditions of a Seinfeld-based Festivus and witness the nuances of the original Festivus, as celebrated by the O'Keefe family. See first-hand how Festivus is celebrated by others and receive plenty of advice and tips to aid in your own Festivus party plans.
What foods should be prepared? Is meatloaf preferred? Should you organize a wrestling match with your father? Are you too feeble for wrestling? What about arm wrestling or even thumb wrestling? How should you Air your Grievances? Maybe this is an opportunity to complain about Grandma's clicking dentures… You'll find great answers to all these questions, and more.
Endorsed by Seinfeld Writer Dan O'Keefe
"This book completes Festivus' transformation from borderline child endangerment to beloved pop-cultural footnote of the late 1990s." ~ Seinfeld Writer Dan O’Keefe
Reviews
The author leaves nothing out, adds a full dose of humor, and leaves you with a complete understanding of Festivus. Good reference and a good read! ~ Goodreads.com
The book has everything! Did we tell you that an aluminum pole is featured on the right side of every page spread? Of course it’s plain and unadorned, just as Festivus aficionados prefer. ~ FestivusWeb.com
