If you’re
brave, follow cousins Beth and Patrick to Libya in the 13th century. The
town of Silene is being terrorized by a vicious animal that is eating
livestock. The townspeople believe it’s a dragon sent by the devil. In
order to appease the beast, the people believe they must offer a human
sacrifice—a young girl named Sabra. When Beth tries to help Sabra
escape, she too is tied up as an offering for the dragon. Meanwhile,
Patrick and a new friend named Hazi join Georgius, a Roman knight who is
serving in Africa to keep peace. Georgius decides to find the dragon
and kill it. Georgius’s plans go awry when Beth and Sabra beg him not to
kill the dragon. The girls know the true secret of Silene—the dragon
isn’t its worst enemy.
My thoughts:
My son loves dragons and history. The picture on the cover caught his attention so fast that I had to promise him I would read it quickly for my review so he could read it. I love the history in the book. The chapters are short, the font is large, illustrations throughout the pages, and it’s always an adventure with the cousins.
The only thing I don’t like about this series is that I don’t have them all!
I even enjoy reading them as an adult.

Publishers has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book. In no way
was I asked to give a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my
own.
I also reviewed this book and enjoyed it. It's a great series.
