Award-winning novelist Gillian Bradshaw’s exciting fantasy-history tale of a thief, a dragon, a princess, monsters, sorcery, and battles in ancient Africa. Teen fisherman Prahotep is nicknamed “bad-luck” because everything he touches turns to disaster. When his father dies, he sets off to Thebes in Egypt to improve his fate, but instead of finding riches, he finds Lady Hathor, a proud, irritable dragon—and a creature that an evil sorcerer in the capital will kill to find.Meanwhile, to the south, in Nubia, the princess Kandaki’s family is murdered by a usurper. Kandaki refuses the usurper’s offer of marriage, and is sent north to be offered as a sacrifice to a “swamp dragon.” When all their paths cross, more than sparks fly.

I borrowed these from a friend about a decade ago. I never did return them -- instead I read the stories to each of my three kids (2 girls and a boy) in turn, and then the kids read them on their own. These imaginative stories were keepers even as we gave away others. What fun! Loved them.I'm gonna pass on a copy or two to my friends kids!

I was pleased to see a reissue of this title (actually it originally came out at two books). I've been reading The Dragon and the Thief aloud to my sixth grade students for years, and they love it.

My kids and I love these stories. I read them before and am happy they put them in a single book now. If you like Ancient Egypt and dragons and love stories, this book will keep you and your kids entertained for hours.

A definitely well told tale, a worst bad lock poor young fishermen that can not fish, a very elegant lady Dragon, well mannered and a brave young princes. What a grate adventure from beginning to end, not more words or sentences needed for it.
