Once a pristine, natural paradise, CHIMA has become a battle ground for eight animal tribes. Best friends are now enemies. The animals fight for control of a natural resource called CHI, a powerful element that is both a source of life and potential destruction. Only a few brave heroes in CHIMA understand the true nature of CHI, and the possible downfall of CHIMA that will result from its misuse. Their stories, and the stories of those who seek to destroy them, are known as... THE LEGENDS OF CHIMA. The third volume in the hit series continues the adventures of Laval and his fellow members of the Lion tribe as they fight against Prince Cragger & the Crocodile tribe to preserve the balance of the mysterious force known as Chi.
