Looking for an exciting book about the adventures of swashbuckling Knights of King Arthur’s Round Table battling dragons? Surprise, it’s dinosaurs! After the famous knights gather to report to King Arthur about their brave feats, especially the 40 dragons Sir Erec reports vanquishing, Merlin dangles a quest, to slay the Terrible Lizard! Instantly regretting his bravado, Sir Erec has no choice but to accept. Of course, all of the other knights compete for the challenge too, thus beginning the quest to find the dangerous creature they must conquer. This humorous yet scary tale, with high flying action battles, comes alive with animated panels of illustrations depicting hungry dinosaurs pursuing brave Erec and his competing knights who are eager for glory. What happens to these prideful knights when their impulsive bravado overcomes their sense of reason? This exciting tale, full of twists and turns, will surprise you, especially the ending.
