Summary:
In extraordinary times, twelve-year-old boys must act like men.
Greece 562 BC. For insolvent debtors, the price of bankruptcy is slavery. When his mother and siblings are seized for unpaid debts, little Diossos must run to fetch help. He must cross mountains, forests, and stormy seas, brave wild animals, slave catchers, pirates, and the power of the state. He has a month to complete his quest, only days to grow up.
The Heroes ofOut of the Lions Mawreturn for an encore in this stand-alone classic tale of high adventure, full of white-knuckle cliffhangers and last-minute escapes, engaging characters, and sparkling humor.
Continuously in print since 1946 across Eastern Europe, the book has been compared for its tempo and style toTreasure IslandandThe Three Musketeers. If you liked those, you will like this.
