The Golden Lion: A Graphic Novel (Cleopatra in Space #4) (4)

Each book in this series has gotten more intense than the last as Cleo struggles to live up to the prophecies about her. After the tragedy of losing a friend in book 3, which Cleo blames herself for, Cleo isn't about to involve her friends in her latest escapade. Especially since the council (most of them) didn't want her to seek out the Golden Lion (fallen star of great power) in the first place. But this is Cleo, who acts first and thinks later, and she convinces her friend Brian to help her get to the planet where the Golden Lion is supposed to be. But despite the warnings about snow, Cleo is not prepared for what she finds: blizzards, enormous snow spiders, and a thief (Antony) from her past. Forced to team up with Antony, Cleo fights to survive and stumbles into something unexpected. And when the enemy shows up, she's forced to fight. I have to admit, the ending of this one stunned me it was so unexpected. In fact several things happen at the end that really surprised me, but which open up some rather interesting new questions about just who Cleo is and what she's supposed to do.This is a fabulous series for young adventure readers who like a good dose of humor, courage, and the unexpected. The relationships are fun as well as Cleo and Antony (who didn't see that coming) get to know each other better amid all the storm and strife. Combining historical fiction and science fiction has turned out brilliantly in this thoroughly entertaining series.

These books are the only thing my 8 year old sister loves read! She really loves the plot and characters! This book and the others in the series are perfect if your children are into sci fi and space.

My grand daughters love this series. One is 10 and the other 14. They both enjoy them and they are just nice entertainment. They are very particular about books and these are very appropriate for these age groups.

I love this book it is so fun and exciting. It is an excellent book and I would gladly read it again

The "Cleopatra in Space" adventure continues, and it continues to be great, yay! I would give it 10 stars, if Amazon would let me. My 7-year-old daughter and I both love this series, and I'm so happy she gets to enjoy this incredible graphic novel with an amazing & strong super-heroine at the center of it. Great story, fantastic art, super-exciting action sequences--it's just tons of fun. I say 10 stars, write it down.

This is an amazing book and series!!I saw the 1 star review saying this book has profanity. I have read all four in this series and there is absolutely NO profanity. I have all the books in my 3rd grade classroom and would never allow that if they were inappropriate. My students adore All the Cleo books. 😊

I purchased this book as a request from one of my 4th grade students and it has been passed around throughout my classroom. They are loving it! I haven't had a chance to read it, but it certainly is popular with the 9-10 year olds!

My son and I have really enjoyed this series. The story is imaginative and unique and the illustrations bring it to life. My son has read most of the books in a single sitting very unusual for him. Great series for kids of all ages and adults that love graphic novels.

Cleopatra in space es una muy buena serie de aventuras espaciales con un ritmo trepidante y un magnífico dibujo. Por otro lado, se puede seguir la trama perfectamente sin que el nivel de inglés sea muy exigente.

My two nephews love this series (now aged 10 and 11)
