In the early 1800s, Nicholas Santa discovered an ancient race of elven.
Short, fat and hairy, they have lived peacefully on the North Pole since the Ice Age but Nicholas is quickly swept into the colony’s first and only fracture. The elven known as the Cold One has divided his people. His name is Jack. And Jack’s tired of hiding. Why should they live in a shrinking ice cap when humans occupy the rest of the world?
It’s just not fair.
There’s no stopping Jack from world domination until Nicholas Santa, the only human to enter the elven colony, joins helium-bladder reindeer, artificially-intelligent snowmen, and a merry band of big-footed elven to bring peace back to the North Pole.
And becomes a legend.

Claus Boxed A Science Fiction Holiday Adventure Claus Boxed Book 1 edition by Tony Bertauski Children eBooks
In honor of the holiday season, I have started reading “Claus: Legend of the Fat Man.” Having grown up watching all the Christmas Holiday specials, the basics of this story were already familiar to me. This version, however, was a bit different, though no less entertaining than all those wonderful old holiday cartoons.In this book, Nicholas Santa, his wife Jessica, and their son Jon have gone on an adventure seeking to reach the North Pole. They began the journey by ship, then hired some Inuit guides to help them travel the remainder of the way. However as the weather in this extremely northern portion of the globe turns horribly bad, their guides abandon them during the night, taking the food & other supplies with them. Abandoned as they are, with only one tent for shelter, they are surely doomed.
In an attempt to find help for his family, Nicholas is separated from them and captured by a group of elves who haves lived undetected at the North Pole for centuries. Their leader intends to use Nicholas to deliver a plague that will wipe out all of humanity.
In the meantime, Jessica and Jon are rescued by a rival group of elves who do not wish to destroy anyone. They had left their homes when Jack seized control and have been on the run ever since.
This book tells the story of both groups of elves and how the North Pole came to be the home of the jolly man we have come to know as Santa Claus. I found this to be a very interesting and unusual tale. It was both quite different and very similar to the various versions of his story that I remember from childhood. Everything was well thought out & explained in a way that made it seem quite reasonable, and I consider this one to be well worth reading this holiday season. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.
This was the Boxed set version, so it also contained two other books. The second one was “Jack: The Tale of Frost.” This book takes place about 200 years after the end of the first book, and tells the tale of both Jack Frost and his best friend. It shows how technologically advanced they have become, and how those advances have benefited humanity as a whole. But it also shows that the elven who was once known as Janack still has a great hatred of the “warmbloods” and how he had ages before laid plans to destroy them. Now that those plans are nearing completion, what will become of the human race?
I thought this was a very interesting story. While parts of it were quite obvious as to what was going on, that made them no less entertaining than the parts of the book that weren’t so clear at first. Yes some of his tale was included in the first book, but only peripherally. The majority of Jack’s story was more than just a tale told from a different perspective.
The third book in the box set, “Flurry: Journey of a Snowman” was just as good as the first two books in the collection. In this book, Oliver and his mother are returning to her childhood home to live with his grandmother as Oliver’s mother had lost her job and they had nowhere else to go. Oliver’s grandmother is extremely strict and there are a great many rules that they must follow if they are going to remain living there. There is also a great mystery surrounding the estate. There is no wifi or cell signal at the house, though there is an old windmill on the property that appears to be electrified. At night there seems to be something wild and dangerous roaming about outside. There is also a living snowman that sometimes appears and seems to be quite protective of Oliver.
All 3 of the books in this set are quite enjoyable and I would recommend reading them this holiday season if you have the time. Of the three, my favorites were “Claus: Legend of the Fat Man” and “Flurry: Journey of a Snowman.” I’m glad I took the time to read all 3 of them and would encourage others to read them as well, but those two were the ones I liked best out of this collection.
I hope everyone has a great holiday. Merry Christmas!

Claus Boxed A Science Fiction Holiday Adventure Claus Boxed Book 1 edition by Tony Bertauski Children eBooks Reviews
This is a very fun trilogy. As I was reading it, I kept telling my husband and my son that they would really enjoy these books. This is a fresh take on the Santa mythology. As another reviewer mentioned, each book could easily stand alone, It's just all the more entertaining to have three books that are connected by a place of origin. I also love what one of the characters said about "magic". He asserted to other characters that you call things magic when you don't understand them. Once you do understand them, it's science. There are also plenty of surprises. There is darkness, happiness, depression, joy, warmth, and wonder. I plan to tell all of my bookworm friends about this trilogy. I loved reading it.
I just finished reading the first of this boxed set. Though the story takes place in 1818, the author uses modern day terminology, NOT used in 1818. A few times I thought, "stay in character!". (This is why I gave the book 4 stars instead of 5 and the rating of "Good" instead of "Great" for the writing). It reminded me of a movie where the actor's (female) character sustained a serious leg injury (fracture, if I remember correctly) not long after the movie started, but by the middle of the movie, the actor was walking normally, as if the character had never been injured. I guess the director did not want to remind her, or didn't care, and shot the rest of the movie where the actor continued, without the leg injury.
Back to Claus Otherwise, the first book of this is an enjoyable, and touching read for adults that can be shared with children. Start reading this to your children tonight, and finish it with them on Christmas morn.
The first book in the trilogy gives a surprising twist into the origin of Santa. The second book could stand alone but is more intriguing as we decipher who is the true Jack Frost. Flurry leads you down the garden path quite literally into a mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end. I won't tell you who Flurry is in our history of myths and fables. Only that Flurry has an advocate to help him try to get his Hallmark ending. Something not everyone got in the other two books. Couldn't put them down!!!
When I pick up a Tony book, as I call the books by Tony Bertauski, I know I must make certain I have the time to sit and read it in one sitting because I will not want to put it down to prepare food or to sleep or anything else. It is a good thing I read quickly. I have had this set on my TBR pile for a while, and I saved it to read at Christmas for what I hope is an obvious reason, given the title of the books in the set. The author's specialty is taking well-known favorite stories and turning them on their ears in such a way as to make a person think, "Hmm, this could actually be a cool way for this to be true!" and putting them into my personal favorite sci-fi/fantasy blended genre of reading. He takes elements of the original story from its oldest form, adds in the newer pop culture elements, then sticks those into the blender of his awesomely creative imagination and remakes them in a way that makes a thinking person like me really happy inside. I know that whatever my expectations might be at the beginning, I will not be disappointed as far as the level of enjoyment, the surprises and the originality of his re-imagining of a character and the legend which surrounds it. I may not be happy for the reasons I thought when I began the book, but I am happy nevertheless for having read the book when I have done so. I am also tired from not having gone to bed when I should have, because I cannot put the thing down until I have finished it! (Yes, I even take the to the bathroom when I need a potty break and keep reading in there. Maybe a little TMI for some folks, but hey, I can't help myself. He's that good a storycrafter!) D That's why he will probably always get a five star from me.
