Thanks to a crew of misfit treasure-seekers, Wily Snare has assumed his rightful place as King of Panthasos. Wily knew how to be a great trapsmith--devising and building various contraptions to keep plunderers at bay--but he has no idea how to be a good king.And he hasn't escaped his past. Stalag, the Cavern Mage who once kept him locked away, is amassing an army of stone soldiers to seize the kingdom. Wily's only hope is to tame a lair beast--the one creature that stands a chance against Stalag's army. But first, Wily and his friends will need to survive the journey to the fabled "Below"--where the lair beast dwells. This action-packed fantasy adventure is filled with snappy dialogue, dangerous creatures, spirited adventure, and inventive magic to appeal to readers 8-12.
