The poisoned king / Katherine Rundell ; with art by Ashley Mackenzie.
"Christopher Forrester woke to find a dragon chewing on his face--and his heart leapt for joy! He'd been dreaming of going back to the Archipelago, the secret cluster of islands where all the creatures of myth still live, and here was his summons. But there is a poison spreading in the Archipelago. Rooting it out will involve a daring rescue mission on the back of a sphinx, a stealthy entrance to a dragon's lair, and a death-defying plan to save a prisoner held in the heart of a castle. At the center of this storm is Anya: a small girl with a flock of birds at her side, a new-hatched chick in her pocket, and a ravenous hunger for justice. Katherine Rundell's second thrilling installment in the Impossible Creatures series involves castles, dragons, and revenge--the things of which great stories are made. The splendors within are brought to life with fifty illustrations, including a map and a bestiary of magical creatures"-- Provided by publisher.
