Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In chapter one "A Thousand Hooves", Elenna recalls Wizard Aduro telling them that Tagus is half-man and half-horse. What name is given to this type of hybrid creature?

Answer: Centaur

The front cover of this book is purple and pictures Tom standing beside a very angry-looking centaur.

Centaurs are most commonly found in Greek and Roman mythology.

2. In chapter two "Trapped", how does Tom stop the spread of a grass fire?

Answer: By cutting the grass with his sword

Cutting the grass meant there would be no fuel to keep the fire burning.

3. In chapter three "Behind Bars", why does Tom end up in prison?

Answer: The townspeople think he started the grass fire

A small group of men were herding their cattle when the fire started. When they saw Tom covered in soot, they assumed he'd started the fire.

4. In chapter four "Hoofbeats in the Night", how does Tom escape from his prison cell?

Answer: By stuffing some fabric into a hole near the cell door

Tom convinces the prison guard to bring him some food. When the cell door is opened, he stuffs a piece of fabric into the hole where the door lock fits into the wall. When the door is locked again, the sliding bolt forces the fabric deeper into the hole and the weak rocks of the prison wall crack.

5. In chapter five "Victor", Tom and Elenna find a young boy named Victor hiding behind some bushes in a field. What is Victor's father's name?

Answer: Adam

Adam is the trading town's Head Guard. Victor was helping to look after a herd of cattle when the grass fire started.

8. In chapter eight "Crossing The River", Tom spies something glittering on one of Tagus's hooves. What is it?

9. In chapter nine "Chase To The Hills", how does Tom catch Tagus?
