Book Description

September 7, 2004

Unas meses después que el joven Alexander Cold se internara con suabuela en el corazón del Amazonas en busca de una legendaria Bestia, vivirá otra aventura. En esta ocasión, la reportera Kate Cold acompaña a su nieto y a Nadia, la mejor amiga de Alexander, junto con los fotógrafos de la International Geographic, en un viaje a otro remoto rincón del mundo. La misión del equipo es adentrarse en un reino prohibido, oculto en los picos helados del Himalaya, y localizar el legendario dragón de oro, una estatua sagrada y oráculo invaluable capaz de presagiar el futuro del reino.

En su carrera para llegar a la estatua antes de que sea destruida por la avaricia de un intruso, Alexander y Nadia deben usar el poder espiritual de sus animales totémicos: el Jaguar y el Águila. Con la ayuda de un sabio monje budista, su joven discípulo, el príncipe heredero, y una feroz tribu de guerreros Yeti, Alexander y Nadia lucharán para proteger el reino del dragón de oro.

3.0 out of 5 stars UN LIBRO PROMEDIO, May 6, 2004
By 
S. Quinto (Guatemala, Guatemala) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A pesar de las críticas realizadas hacia este libro, no encuentro razón para dar una reseña en la cual mate por completo el interés del lector hacia este, ya que es un libro que cumple lo que se necesita en un escrito de aventuras, osea que, este libro posee una historia entretenida, audaz y con muchos acertijos que hacen que en ocaciones el lector pueda predecir el desenlace, tal es el caso con lo de la Especialista que para los que ya la leyeron, me imagino que supusieron quién era, pero al final el libro si se parece mucho a una película de suspenso tipo Hollywood y deja enseñanzas lejanas a un libro de pensamientos profundos, pero vuelvo a repetir, este libro no es aburrido solo predecible y vale la pena darle una leída, al final siempre es bueno leer, y este libro es sencillo y rápido de digerir y terminar, es un libro de atención promedio.

5.0 out of 5 stars An extremely good story for the hole family!!!!!, October 27, 2003
By 
"songokoussj4" (Mayaguez, PR United States) - See all my reviews
I already finished City of the Beast and had to get this one!This book is awesome!! I love the adventures of Kate Cold, his grandson Alexander, the International Geography photographers and all the characters like; Nadia, Boroba (the monkey), and in this particular story the people of the Himalayas; the budist monks, Pema, Judit Kinski, Tensing and the future king, Dil Bahadur. The author Isabel Allende writes this stories so that you can almost feel like you're part of it. In this one, she writes about a Sacred Dragon statue of gold with beautiful gems and magical powers, that is secretly protected in the Kingdom of Tunkhala on the Tibet. Only the King knows the code to use this magical powers and of course the bad guys (the blue men from the scorpion sect) under the command of Tex Armadillo who wants to steal the Holy Gold Dragon. All that and more happen in the Gold Dragon Kingdom.
I can't wait for the next adventure of Kate Cold, Alexander Cold, the International Geographic group and maybe Nadia Santos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Isabel, lo hiciste otra vez!, July 25, 2006
This review is from: El Reino del Dragon de Oro (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Excelente lectura. No pude guardar el libro hasta terminarlo. Aunque este orientado hacia una audiencia juvenil, su lectura amena y sencilla, mantiene al publico adulto interesado. No puedo evitar reconocer un poco el trio de Harry Potter (Harry, Hermione y Ron) en Alexander (con espejuelos y todo), Nadia y el principe Dil Bahadur , todos y cada cual con sus capacidades psiquicas (magia?). La nota humoristica de la autora rompe con la seriedad del pensamiento budista sin faltarle el respeto. Creo que si el texto se estudiara en salon de clase formal podria ser de mucho provecho para modificar la perspectiva de la juventud occidental. Isabel Allende puede escribir lo que quiera y del tema que quiera porque ya ha adquirido la madurez (como mujer y como escritora) que se necesita para opinar sobre cualquier cosa, Bravo!
