The Caves of Wonder

By Kirsten Marion

Book Overview

In the sequel to The Silk Road, Lucy and Dee are trapped in the magical world of Sericea with the young emperor Yidi and a sorceress queen who wants all three of them captured.

Hiding their true identities to protect both themselves and those who want to help them, the trio must make the hazardous trip across Sericea to the Caves of Wonder to find a fabled warrior who could help them. But along the way, developing talents and rumors of revolution test their resolve. Lucy's magical abilities grow, Dee's interest in alchemy poses new opportunities and Yidi's budding awareness of his empire has him confronting uncomfortable truths as he learns to live among those he's meant to rule.

New dangers lurk around every corner, and if Lucy, Dee, and Yidi can't face them together, their lives and the very fate of Sericea will be in peril.
