    Die Drachen von Babylon
    Strážce vysutých zahrad. Sedm bájných divů světa.
    • Babylon leidet unter einem grausamen König. Da macht die junge Tiamat eine unglaubliche Entdeckung: Im Ringgraben des Königspalastes laufen die Sirrush, die Drachen des Königs, frei herum. Als Tiamat die Drachen füttern will, leckt ihr das Anführer-Tier die Hand. Von da an scheint sie magische Kräfte zu haben. Der Gelehrte Andulli erkennt Tiamtas Fähigkeiten und erinnert sich an die Legende von Babylon. Wenn es Tiamat mit ihren Zauberkräften gelänge, die seit 2000 Jahren verschlossenen Tore der Stadt zu öffnen, könnte man die Perser zu Hilfe rufen und die Befreiung Babylons wäre ein Kinderspiel. Doch da ist auch noch Andullis Gegenspieler, der böse Dämon des Königs. Und da ist Tiamat selbst, die einen enormen Dickschädel hat und sich eigentlich nur für die Rettung der Drachen interessiert … Ein neues spannendes Abenteuer aus der Reihe ›Abenteuer der 7 Weltwunder‹
