No han transcurrido muchos meses desde que el joven Alexander Cold se internara con su abuela en el corazon del Amazonas en busca de su legendaria Bestia. En esta ocasion, la reportera Kate Cold acompana a su nieto y a la mejor amiga de el, Nadia, junto con los fotografos de International Geographic, en un viaje a otro remoto rincon del mundo. La mision del equipo es adentrarse en un reino prohibido, oculto en los picos helados del Himalaya, y localizar el legendario dragon de oro, una estatua sagrada y oraculo invaluable capaz de presagiar el futuro del reino.En su carrera para llegar a la estatua antes de que sea destruida por la avaricia de un intruso, Alexander y Nadia deben usar el poder ilimitado de sus espiritus animales totemicos: Jaguar y Aguila. Con la ayuda de un sabio monje budista y su joven discipulo real, y de una feroz tribu de guerreros Yeti, Alexander y Nadia luchan intrepidamente para proteger el sagrado reinado del dragon dorado. Una vez mas, Isabel Allende guia a los lectores en un fabuloso viaje colmado de suspenso, magia y asombrosas aventuras en esta fascinante continuacion de La Ciudad de las Bestias."

Two teens Alexander and Nadia follow Kate, a reporter, into a mysterious country in the Himalayas and run into trouble when a mafia-like group steal the sacred golden dragon. Adventure and mysticism ensue after Nadia & other girls from the kingdom are kidnapped and Alexander, a prince, & a monk must save them and the dragon. A community of yetis play their part as well. This is a jam-packed YA novel I enjoyed very much. ⬇️

Texreader This is book 2 in a trilogy but I was ok reading this one first. Book 3 is set in Africa so I‘ll plan to read it next year. #authoramonth #readingasia2021 @Soubhiville @BarbaraBB @Librarybelle (edited) 3y

“a human life was more important *that* all the gold in the world.” Arg! Almost to the end of the book and there‘s a typo. Why does this always happen? It‘s like the proofreader gets tired.

I just started this one tonight for #authoramonth and my myriad other reading challenges. It‘s set in the Himalayas so it works for #readingasia2021 and because it‘s crazy cold and snowy, #wintergames #mistletoemaniacs. @Soubhiville @Clwojick @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

Super late for #twofortuesday but Littens are so forgiving I figured I‘d play anyway. Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) No but I‘m close! Just letters A, K, and Q for #litsyatoz and finishing my monthly reads for #authoramonth and #foodandlit. I won‘t finish #readingasia2021 but I‘m still plugging away anyway because I love the challenge.

2) Tagged, and fortunately it goes toward 3 of my challenges!

TheSpineView You're welcome and you can play any day!👍😊🤩 3y

My December tbr (hoping to squeeze in both group reads) for #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs

#Earlybirdpoints = 26

The first two books are for #authoramonth and #foodandlit and the first book is also for #litsyatoz #letterK

My December is going to be tough going since my big trial was moved from this week to December 6. 🙁 But I‘m still going to do my best because it‘s just so much fun!!

I bought this last month but during a sad time so I had laid it down and forgot about it. Although it‘s set in an imaginary country in the Himalayas, which reviews say are beautifully described in the book, I may count it for #Bhutan since the Himalayas run through that country. We will see... once I read it to see if that‘s a somewhat legit substitute. #readingasia2021

Started teaching and fell down a rabbit hole. Taking the time to get back to myself and read.
