''"Dragons don't exist,"whispered Jo. But even those three short words sounded more like a wish than a statement of fact.''
Something dark and sinister is going on at the British Museum. An ancient power has awoken and it has stopped time. People are frozen like statues. Only Will and his sister Jo are still moving. The only humans still moving, that is. The dragons are moving. They're spitting real fire, too. And they're attacking Will and Jo. A glorious golden girl comes to their rescue, followed by an angel and a muse. And Will and Joe are plunged into a world where statues are alive and where good battles evil. Why are they still moving? Who is behind the stopping of time? And will they ever get Mum back?
I can't figure out why we've never reviewed ''Stoneheart'' hereabouts - are we mad? - but you should read it. Also [[Far Rockaway by Charlie Fletcher|Far Rockaway]], also by Fletcher, a brilliant story featuring Chingachgook from ''Last of the Mohicans'', Long John Silver from ''Treasure Island'' and Alan Breck from ''Kidnapped''.
