Teens: Pendragon


Pendragon And The Merchant Of Death

We both think this is a great book. It's about a "normal" guy named Robert Pendragon.  ( He goes by Bobby or Pendragon.) But one day, Bobby's uncle mysteriously shows up and takes him to an abandoned subway station. His uncle takes him on a little "trip" that changes his life forever.
