The Dragon Lantern is the second book in the award-winning,
action-packed, steampunk League of Seven series by acclaimed author Alan
Gratz.
Archie Dent is convinced that he and his friends Hachi and Fergus are
the first three members of a new League of Seven: a group of heroes who
come together to fight the Mangleborn whenever the monsters arise to
destroy humanity. His belief is put to the test when they are forced to
undertake separate missions. Archie and his faithful Tik-Tok servant Mr.
Rivets pursue a shapeshifting girl who has stolen the Dragon Lantern, an
ancient artifact with mysterious powers. And Hachi and Fergus travel to
New Orleans to find Madame Blavatsky, the only person who knows the
circumstances surrounding the death of Hachi's father.
In the course of their adventures the three heroes meet potential
candidates to join their League. At the same time, they learn
deep-rooted secrets that could destroy the League forever. . . .
