So when a giant snake starts terrorizing a nearby city, Sayam decides it\'s time for him to use his knowledge to help others, and steps into action. But the beast might not be Sayam\'s biggest problem: the ruthless King Kinich Kak Ek sees Sayam as a threat to his throne. Prophecy declares that whoever succeeds at three impossible tests will be king. Monstrous snakes and impossible tests are a lot for a boy to handle, but Sayam is brave and has a loyal monkey, a wise grandmother, and magical knowledge on his side Fans of adventure tales with a mythological focus--such as Bowles\' previous work with Latin American myths, The Chupacabras of the Rio Grande and the Garza Twin series, as well as Rick Riordan Presents, especially the Storm Runner novels--will love this exciting and accessible graphic novel.
