What a treat for fantasy lovers! With Gods and Warriors, Michelle Paver (of the award-winning Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series fame) whisks readers back to one of the most treacherous and exciting periods in time—the time of the lost city of Atlantis and the curse of Tutankhamen— and really ramps up the action from the very first page.

When a boy named Hylas finds himself at the center of an ancient prophesy, he’s forced to face ferocious warriors and beasts and the gods of sea and land to save his sister and his life. Sounds like impossible odds, but he doesn’t have to do it alone. With the help of a friendly dolphin and an Oracle’s daughter who’s starting to understand her own powers he just might succeed. (Ages 9-12)
