| Publisher Description: Kingdom of the Golden Dragon, the second book of Isabel Allende's page-turning adventure trilogy, follows Alexander Cold, his grandmother, and his irrepressible friend Nadia Santos into a forbidden kingdom in the Himalayas to find the legendary statue of the Golden Dragon. Available in trade paperback for the first time, this heart-pounding coming-of-age novel from Allende, acclaimed author of The Sum of Our Days and The House of the Spirits, "combines action, drama, and a cautionary tale of the decimation of ancient ways that occurs in the name of progress."
