Don Bosco’s ‘The Peranakan Princess’ is the brilliant installment of his fantastic Sherlock Hong series.
Author Don Bosco once again delights young readers with the second installment of his Sherlock Hong series, The Peranakan Princess.
A mystical adventure series that has been likened to a “mash-up of
Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter”, Bosco’s imaginative young detective
is certain to appeal to readers of all ages.
It’s
1891, and Sherlock Hong is fifteen years old. Living in Singapore
after being expelled from his last school for using magic and studying
alchemy, he’s only trying to keep to himself, work on his studies, and
stay out of trouble. But all of those well-meaning plans are about to
go out the window when he learns of a plot to kidnap a young lady with
very special abilities.
Still
eager to prove himself to the International Order of Young Seekers,
Sherlock is swept up in a wild adventure that leads him all the way into
the beautiful and enchanted forests of Malacca, where he stumbles upon a
very interesting Peranakan tale about the beautiful Princess Hang Li
Poh and her very coveted Book of Secrets. Once again, it’s up to young
Sherlock to save the day (and the girl), but will he be able to do so in
time? Readers will tear through the pages of this whimsical adventure
to find out!
Bosco’s
Sherlock Hong series centers on a young man who wants to be an
alchemist, and has a very particular skill that makes him a gifted
detective as well. His adventures are magical, intriguing, witty, and
creative, and younger readers will absolutely adore this foray into
Singapore with the inquisitive Sherlock Hong to lead the way.
Don Bosco
Don Bosco describes himself as “geeky, cheeky, and magicky”. His works include the Sherlock Hong series and the Time Talisman series.
Aiming to inspire and delight young readers, Don Bosco’s books are
full of fun, adventure, and magic, set in the extraordinary beauty of
Asia. He lives in Singapore with his wife and two sons.
