Publisher Description
Lief, Barda and their unruly new companion, Jasmine, are on a perilous quest to find the seven gems stolen from the magic Belt of Deltora. The golden topaz has already been found. But only when all the gems have been restored to the Belt can their land be freed from the dark power of the evil Shadow Lord. To find the second stone, the three heroes must travel through territory rules by the monster-sorceress Thaegan. Their journey is filled with treachery, trickery and danger, and at its end they must face the hideous guardian of the enchanted Lake of Tears.

"If you liked the first book, you'll enjoy this one as well. Fun adventure story for kids to read, or for parents to read to their kids. Has a lot of action and suspense, without being overly graphic and gory. The heroes have to use their minds as much or more than their weapons."
— Rob (4 out of 5 stars)
