An action-tastic surfing, bungee jumping, white-water rafting Antipodean adventure for the Warrior Sheep, as they try to rescue a maiden in distress. The maiden is Tuftella, fairest ewe of all, and according to ancient prophesy, she's locked in a dark tower somewhere Down Under. And so the Warrior Sheep hitch a ride on a boat for New Zealand, land of bubbling mud pools and spouting geysers. Then it's on to Australia, home of the emu, kangaroo...and crocodile! The sheep find a guide in the plump shape of Alice Barton. They're convinced she's their 'fairy godtingy', but would a fairy godtingy try to shove them in the ocean? And why does she really want Barton's Billabong so badly?
