Description
A hidden road. A dangerous bargain. An adventure they can’t turn down.
Lucy wants an adventure.
Dee needs money to search for his missing parents.
When a flaming bird leads them to a hidden road beneath the earth—and the lord of stone offers them a quest in a magical land—the chance for both is too good to refuse.
Thrown into a world of dragons, demons, and dangerous magic, Lucy and Dee are tasked with protecting a young emperor from an unknown threat. It would be simple enough… if the emperor weren’t a royal pain, and if an angry sorceress queen didn’t want him dead.
With the entitled ruler in tow, the two friends must cross a perilous land and find their way home armed with little more than a mysterious feather, their wits, and the help of a dragon-whisperer who looks suspiciously like a hedgehog.
Fast-paced, funny, and full of wonder, Lucy and Dee: The Silk Road is a middle grade fantasy adventure about courage, curiosity, and saying yes to the journey—even when it’s far more dangerous than you imagined.
