Another installment from TBM Guest Blogger - Elizabeth Kay…
How do monsters get into SatNavs? I’ve always called mine The Beast, so maybe it serves me right. There I was tootling down to the cave for another rescue attempt, when things went very weird indeed. Instead of the “Turn right,” and then “Recalculating”, when you don’t do what it wants, The Beast suddenly said, “I can no longer take you to the authors trapped in the cave. You are going to have to undertake a quest instead.
“Take the M23 to Gatwick Airport at six o’clock tomorrow morning, and board a plane for Cracow, in Poland. When you arrive there you must seek out the dragon that lives at the foot of the castle and breathes fire, and ask it how to achieve your goal.”
So I’m off to Poland. I’ve got some books to take with me on the plane – Lost Riders, by Elizabeth Laird, about boy camel racers, and The Lastling, by Philip Gross. And I’ve got my camera. I’m going to take a photograph of the dragon, and post it on here when I get back, just to prove I’ve done what I said I’d do. I hope the dragon speaks English…
