Review by Horn Book Review

Siblings Jack and Annie travel on yet another Merlin Mission, this time back twelve hundred years to Baghdad's golden age so that they can deliver a book of Aristotle's writings to the caliph. Osborne often enlists stock writing (""her shocked gaze""; ""'But--how--what?' stammered Jack"") that's unworthy of her detail-rich story, which is enhanced by Murdocca's dramatic black-and-white art.
