书籍简介

重返群岛的魔力，重温《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜#1《不可能的生物》的精彩续集。这部续集被誉为“即刻经典”（Katherine Applegate，纽伯瑞奖得主，作品The One and Only Ivan）！

*这本精彩绝伦的书籍封面采用烫金和压花工艺，衬页采用全彩设计，边缘则采用亮丽的染色工艺*

克里斯托弗·福雷斯特醒来后发现一条龙正在啃咬他的脸——他的心一下子跳了起来！他一直梦想着回到群岛，回到那片神秘的岛屿群，所有神话生物都栖息于此，而这里正是他的召唤之地。

但是，一种毒药正在群岛中蔓延。这场风暴的根源在于：骑在狮身人面像背上执行大胆的救援任务，潜入龙穴，以及执行一项挑战死亡的计划，以拯救被关押在城堡中心的囚犯。这场风暴的中心人物是安雅：一个小女孩，身边有一群鸟儿，口袋里揣着一只刚孵出的小鸡，她对正义有着强烈的渴望。

凯瑟琳·伦德尔的《不可能的生物》系列第二部惊险作品，讲述了城堡、龙和复仇——这些都是伟大故事的素材。书中五十幅插图，包括一张地图和一本神奇生物图鉴，将书中的精彩场景栩栩如生地展现出来。

Return to the magic of the Archipelago in the dazzling sequel to the runaway, #1 New York Times bestseller Impossible Creatures, hailed as “an instant classic” (Katherine Applegate, Newbery Medal Winner for The One and Only Ivan)!

*This spectacular book features foil and embossing on the jacket, full-color designed endpapers, and brilliant stained edges*

Christopher Forrester woke to find a dragon chewing on his face—and his heart leapt for joy! He’d been dreaming of going back to the Archipelago, the secret cluster of islands where all the creatures of myth still live, and here was his summons.

But there is a poison spreading in the Archipelago. Rooting it out will involve a daring rescue mission on the back of a sphinx, a stealthy entrance to a dragon’s lair, and a death-defying plan to save a prisoner held in the heart of a castle. At the center of this storm is Anya: a small girl with a flock of birds at her side, a new-hatched chick in her pocket, and a ravenous hunger for justice.

Katherine Rundell’s second thrilling installment in the Impossible Creatures series involves castles, dragons, and revenge—the things of which great stories are made. The splendors within are brought to life with fifty illustrations, including a map and a bestiary of magical creatures.
