Dancing Mountain

Dancing Mountain is the second book in the three-book Jeli series, about a momentous clash between African and Mycenaean god families. It is advisable to read the first book, Thwortle, before reading this one. The entire series, three books in all, tells one continuous, complex story that is best read in sequence. Mark is not a 'warrior-type', but he's agreed to retrieve his African grandfather's drummer lizard. And he can't expect any help from his aloof grandfather... or can he?
