Description

Beware the claws of the sphinx... Geology-mad Sam and her American cousin Trey are the Chosen Ones, destined to save the world from destruction by gathering together the scattered fragments of The Warrior's Shield. They've already rescued one section of the enchanted shield from the terrifying Medusa, and now learn that the second piece is being guarded by a fearsome sphinx - a creature with the body of a lion, the wings of an eagle and the face of a human. So Sam and Trey must travel to Ancient Egypt, and face mummies, beast-headed warriors... and the deadly sphinx itself!

Author Biography

A.J. Hunter is the pen name for two authors, Allan and James, who bonded over their shared love of mythological creatures. After poring over their history books and trawling through the Internet, Myth Raiders was born! When they're not thinking up new adventures for Sam and Trey, they can usually be found indulging one of their many interests, such as practising kung fu, growing beards, writing fantasy novels for Young Adults, helping develop apps and selling flowers in Covent Garden market. But which hobby belongs to which author? Only A.J. Hunter knows the answer to that...
