The Adrian Series is made up of four (4) books, each containing three (3) short stories, for a total of 12 stories. Set early in the new millennium, these stories follow Adrian Manning, an intelligent young man who gets himself into some intriguing but disastrous situations. His wit and ingenuity ultimately get him out of these situations, but he ultimately learns a valuable lesson as a result. Adrian advances in age throughout the series, and his motivations evolve with him. The perilous situations which make his stories so intriguing, never change, however, until he finally comes to the end of his secondary school journey and learns the ultimate lesson. Each book can be read and enjoyed on its own but when read together, they all reveal a larger narrative.
