Sinopse
Young Erasmus Cromwell-Smith II's adventure happens inside of Prague's astrological clock. Together with a band of five other harlequin dressed youngsters, he experiences a city filled with wizards, enchanters, witches, conjurers, and evil gargoyles. The youngsters seek clues in order to reach the mysterious Hradcany' Castle. They are guided on their quest by The Orloj, the old clock as well as Buggie and Thumbpee his sons. Through the wicked streets of Prague, the six harlequins must find six statues representing each of the human virtues of generosity, humility, compassion, and the human flaws of pride, envy, and avarice. Only after they successfully learn them, they earn clues to reach the castle. The Orloj is a magical tale filled with non-stop action and thrills as well as timeless wisdom through nine timeless fables and poems.
Resumo da Crítica
"The narrative is filled with imaginative characters, including the tiny 'Thumbpee' appearing as Erasmus’ intermittent conscience. It moves at a steady, engaging pace, making creative use of the city backdrop. Admirably, the diverse characters learn the importance of working together. Those familiar with the earlier, adult-oriented books by Erasmus Cromwell-Smith, might be surprised that this is YA. Yet even older readers will find The Orloj of Prague an imaginative rendering—one that should appeal to anyone who enjoys following a creative quest of young wannabe wizards, intertwined with core life lessons."
