The Sign of the Black Rock by Scott Chantler
This is the sequel to Tower of Treasure which I had a lot of fun reading. So I quickly reaquainted myself with the characters and joined the story and the mystery surrounding Dessa and her friends. Well drawn, colourful, and fast-paced. This is one that will be sure to pull you in and get you going in graphic novels.
Summary: Young readers will feel transported by the clever, intricate plotline and superb, sweeping illustrations of this second title in the Three Thieves series. The action resumes as our three goodhearted fugitives stop at a roadside inn during a ferocious thunderstorm. Narrow escapes ensue as Grig, the schemeing shelfish inn keeper, endeavours to capture the trio and secure a reward from the Queen. Tensions mount further as the Queens Dragons arrive at the tavern, hot on the trail of the fugitives and immediately suspicious of the smary Grig. Will Grig get his due? Will the fugitive escape? And why hasn't Grig's gentle wife spoken a word in ten years? You can bet she's got a secret.
