Detail
Ten years after the events in “Amateur Surgeon”, our hero Alan Probe is now a successful surgeon. Flying home over the North Pole in his private jet on Christmas Eve to be with his wife and kids, he's again distracted by a magazine article and smashes into a mysterious stranger...
Fortunately, Alan's plane crash-lands safely, and he survives unharmed. Unfortunately the same can't be said for the very unhappy little elf he's impaled into a Christmas tree, the reindeer that was sucked into his jet engines or the stranger on a sled he knocked out of the sky, and whose whereabouts are now unknown.
With his talent for hastily improvised surgery and an enthusiasm for operating on anything and anyone in sight with the first thing that comes to hand, Alan might just be the right man in the right place to save Christmas!
...even if it was him who ruined it in the first place!
Essential for fans of the original, “Amateur Surgeon Christmas Edition” features five all-new surgeries with new tools, never-before-seen procedures and characters, and a storyline that continues Alan's Probe meteoric (if slightly bumbling) rise to success!
