Product Description

Product Description

Ben is the youngest and most successful thief in the royal city of Quadrivium, but an unexpected encounter with Bella, the queen's mother, changes his life forever. In return for a substantial reward Ben agrees to track down the Book of Prophecies which disappeared from the palace library many years before. It is believed that the Book contains a prophecy which will save the kingdom from an impending war with the rebels. Yet Bella also has an ulterior motive, to find her son who went missing whilst searching for the same book. Ben finds himself catapulted into an unfamiliar world of magic and intrigue where talking eagles and mythical creatures help him on his quest. During his travels he unearths dark secrets as lives are put in peril and an unforeseen reunion surfaces. But not everyone wants the book to be found.

This is an excellent book and one I think would be enjoyed by all ages. I was immediately hooked and was looking forward to my tube journey each day so I could read more. My only disappointment? I have to wait a year to hear more of Ben's story!! This is a truly great read and one I'd thoroughly recommend.

"Ben and the Book of Prophecies" is fast moving and an absorbing read for its target teenager+ (*) age group. *I am 72, couldn't put it down and look forward immensely to Book Two. About time we moved away from vampires and their ilk!

I loved this book! The story is so absorbing and the characters really bring it to life. It's one of those books that captures the imagination of children and adults alike - my 12-year-old said it was 'unputdownable'! I totally agree and can't wait for the next instalment of Ben's adventures.
