Dragons in the Waters

By: Madeleine L'Engle

Narrated by: Michael Crouch

Thirteen-year-old Simon Renier has no idea when he boards the M.S. Orion with his cousin Forsyth Phair that their journey to Venezuela will be a dangerous one. His original plan―to return a family heirloom, a portrait of Simon Bolivar, to its rightful place―is sidetracked when cousin Forsyth is found murdered. When the portrait is stolen, all passengers and crew are suspects. Simon's newfound friends, Poly and Charles O'Keefe, and their scientist father help Simon try to find his painting, and his cousin's murderer. But will they succeed before they land? Or will the murderer and thief escape into the jungles of Venezuela?

Great book

This book is the best she ever wrote. Beyond excellent. A valuable read. For all.

The adventures of these friends and family.

All the plot twists and turns. A fascinating read! Well worth the time it takes to read or listen to it!

Engaging story

I did not want to stop listening. L’Engle draws you in. The narrator did a fabulous job with characters of different ages, genders, nationalities. Really amazing. Can’t wait to listen to the next book in the series. B

Weird tonally

What age is this for? Utterly shocked when one character called someone the f-word. This series is just weird.
