Gabriel Finley and the Raven’s Riddle
by George Hagen (Author) and Scott Bakal (Illustrator)
Booktalk: How can twelve-year-old Gabriel find his missing father, who seems to have vanished without a trace? With the help of Paladin—a young raven with whom he has a magical bond that enables them to become one creature—he flies to the foreboding land of Aviopolis, where he must face a series of difficult challenges and unanswerable riddles that could lead to his father… or to his death.
Snippet:
Gabriel? Wake up!
Opening his eyes, Gabriel found himself high above a barren salt marsh extending for miles along a shore. His first assumption was that the eagle was carrying him, but then he realized that he was actually flapping his own wings. Apparently he and Paladin had succeeded in exchanging bodies in midair–a pretty extraordinary feat in itself–as well as escaping the vicious bird.
