Sinopsis

On the eve of her thirteenth birthday, Kyra Murch receives a strange stone bracelet from her mother, Aerrika.ááItâÇÖs supposed to protect her - but from what?áá In the laundry room of her run-down apartment building, Kyra soon finds out. A mysterious walking, talking rat-man - a Raturro - tries to kidnap her. She stands up to the strange creature, Shale from Deep Nestling. Shale warns her sheâÇÖs in grave danger. She is rescued by the Chimera, a mythical creature made of light that travels through stone and is a portal to another world. Kyra keeps the terrifying encounter a secret, leaving her mother alone and helpless when the Raturro return to capture her.á As Kyra surveys the devastation in her apartment, she faces another shock - the unexpected presence of her father Jaag, who has been absent from her life for years.ááJaag uses the Chimera portal to bring Kyra to the land of Antiica, where a war is being waged against the vicious rebel rats and their leader, Majellan. And itâÇÖs up to Kyra, the now-returned heir, to fulfil the prophecy and save the people and the Raturro from slavery and war.á For a sheltered, solitary girl from Earth, this is a lot to ask.ááBut she wonâÇÖt be alone.

And most importantly, will she rescue her mother in time? The ChimeraâÇÖs Apprenticeátransports a character - and a reader - to a unique and magical world of adventure.ááThe book builds a realm that is wholly believable and a heroine that is convincing and compelling, around the universal desire to hold a family together.áThe ChimeraâÇÖs Apprentice is a middle grade reader with a strong female protagonist on an adventure where friendships are forged and challenged.
