(4) 4-6 Poisons of Caux series. Illustrated by Jennifer Taylor. In this labyrinthine sequel to The Hollow Bettle, apothecary and "Noble Child" Ivy must find the door to Pimcaux and prevent evil Vidal Verjouce from obtaining scourge bracken; if he does, "Caux's green earth will be reduced to ash." The adventure is imaginative and exciting, though in the end, it feels a bit like a wild goose chase.
