Kingsley won over young readers with the inventive gadgets, relentless
action, and gross-out humor in her first book, "Erec Rex: The Dragon's
Eye." The book became a bestseller and collected numerous children's
book awards, including the Benjamin Franklin Award for best new voice
in juvenile fiction and for the outstanding cover art of renowned
British fantasy artist, Melvyn Grant.
The second book in the series, "Erec Rex: The Monsters of Otherness,"
deals with themes of adoption and acceptance under the mythological
framework of the Hercules legend. As Erec fights to save the lives of
50 dragon hatchlings, his real quest is to uncover the truth about his
own identity.

It's a short scene where 12-year-old Erec Rex visits the Memory Mogul
to find out what happened to his childhood memories. The excerpt is
located at the following URL -- or I can send it to you as a text file
upon request:
I checked the different excerpt on the author's own website.
The covers certainly seem designed to seem like Grandpre's Potter
covers.
Can't say I care to go along with the ride for another preteen hero.

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.
