The greatest honour for a young boy is to be chosen as the high priest's apprentice in the temple of Ora. When Sebastian is selected, everyone is shocked - not least Sebastian himself. For you couldn't imagine a more unlikely candidate. Sebastian warms to his duties when he realizes that his new position gives him power. He can order as many cream cakes as he likes, and he turns the offering ceremony into a glitzy extravaganza. But Sebastian keeps having lucky escapes - he narrowly misses explosions and heavy objects falling on his head. Could there be a plot to get rid of?Things get more sinister when Sebastian realizes he is up against the most powerful mob in the city. Undaunted, he and his pet rat, Gerald, go on a mission to foil the gangsters' plans...risking life and whisker.
