Beasts of Olympus 4: Dragon Healer

by Lucy Coats (Author)

Synopsis

Demon, Official Stableboy to the Gods, faces his toughest challenge yet . . . a very farty dragon! Fresh from his underwater adventures in Poseidon's realm, Demon was looking forward to returning to the Stables of the Gods and catching up with Arnie the Griffin, Doris the Hydra and the other magical beasts. But there's no such thing as an ordinary day up on Olympus. There's the small problem of a runaway princess hiding out in the stables with her poison-spitting flying dragons. And Ares is on the warpath - his Golden Fleece has been stolen from the poorly Colchian Dragon who was supposed to be guarding it. Demon's charged with curing the beast but it's got rather an embarrassing ailment and soon the stables are so stinky the other beasts are overcome by fumes from the windy dragon's bottom. How will Demon clean up THIS mess?
