When a mysterious stranger pays his debts, he finds himself in the School for Strays a school for gladiator cats. Follow SOS and his fiery friend Furia on a quest that takes them from gladiator school to The Olympuss Games. Reviews “The fun continues as The Son of Spartapuss discovers that his friend Furia is on a secret quest. Before their adventure begins, they must defeat the one-eyed Cyclaw. Join the Son of Spartapuss and his fiery friend Furia as they battle their way from gladiator school to the Olympuss Games. The series is an excellent way to introduce young readers (6+) to the world of ancient Greece and Rome; they make good class readers. Lively illustrations by Chris Watson add to the enjoyment.” Parents In Touch www.parentsintouch.co.uk/Book-reviews-fiction-5-to-11-page-8 Author Robin Price says: : The books were great fun to research. This time I’ve set a puzzle that runs across all four books. During the time period I am writing in – when Nero was Emperor – the famous games in Greece were in a sad ‘decline’. The Romans introduced some new ideas to the ancient competition in order to make them more exciting – like getting boxers to fight with iron gloves!“ Each Olympusss games book features 15 drawings by Chris Watson (who designed the cover for our Beowuff books). They are just 96 pages long – about half the length of the original Spartapuss books. The text is larger too. This makes them easier to read than the original Spartapuss series.
The next book in this series is The Eye of the Cyclaw School events – arrange a visit to your school, library or festival. I Am Spartapuss Check out the original Spartapuss series. Keep up with the latest from The Feline Empire on Facebook |
