After his parents are lost at sea, ten-year-old Nate is sent to live with a distant relative and learns the amazing truth about his family's history.
Before he can even unpack, Nate is whisked away on an adventure to Arabia. But Nate isn't the adventurous type.
When disaster strikes, Nate is left with only his accidental pet gremlin to help him care for the world's only remaining phoenix egg. If he fails to keep the egg safe long enough for it to hatch, the mythical creature will become extinct.
Fast-paced and full of fun, this is a great choice for the reluctant reader in your life . . . and any other reader, for that matter.
I immediately liked Nate and enjoyed the journey as he became NATHANIEL FLUDD, BEASTOLOGIST. I'm looking forward to book two and can't wait to see what adventure LaFevers will write Nate into next.
