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.
Perfect for fans of Rick Riordan’s Aru Shah and the End of TIme, The Serpent’s Secret by Sayantani DasGupta and The Sand Warrior, by Mark Siegal
Distributed internationally and available through major retailers and library suppliers. Libraries can order directly through their standard distribution channels.
The adventure continues in The Caves of Wonder, a fantasy middle grade novel.
