Book description
In the cold, dead eyes of the Banshee, and the hissing, spitting fangs
of the Gorgon; in the fiery breath of the dragon and the razor sharp
claws of the Sphinx - there is a thirst for blood and a murderous
hunger.
But it is a time of heroes, and the teeth and claws of these hideous
beasts are no match for the lethal blades of such men . . . Anthony
Horowitz is a prolific writer for film, theatre and television, but he
is best loved for his brilliant children's stories, which include the
internationally best-selling series about teenage MI6 agent Alex Rider.
He lives in London and has two teenage sons.
