[Memories of the Eagle and the Jaguar 02] • Le royaume du dragon d'or

Alexander Cold and his best friend, Nadia, the heroes of Allende's _City Of

the Beasts_ , are reunited in a new adventure. This time, Alexander's fearless

grandmother and _International Geographic_ are taking them to another remote

niche of the world -- a forbidden kingdom tucked into the frosty peaks of the

Himalayas. Their task: to locate its fabled Golden Dragon, a sacred statue and

priceless oracle, before it is destroyed by the greed of an outsider.

With the aid of a sage Buddhist monk, his young royal disciple, and a fierce

tribe of Yeti warriors, and armed with the power of their totemic animal

spirits, Alexander and Nadia fight to protect the holy rule of the Golden

Dragon.
