SUMMARY

An unexpected visit by a mysterious old friend draws Beth and Ryan into the forbidden Council Wood. Uncovering the gate into an ancient and noble realm, the cousins stumble across a powerful amulet, The Eye of Ra-Atum. Guided by the scribe's daughter, Ameenah, they navigate dangerous marshes through harsh sandstorms, hounded by the chariot army of Ne-Kamros, a wicked tyrant that is half-man half-raven. Trapped in the bleached desert wastelands, the children's fate rests on their new friend's skill at a timeless game, and the power of the truth over their relentless pursuer. Follow Beth and Ryan on a journey through mysterious ancient caves to distant realms where people and creatures are rarely what they seem. They face formidable foes summoned by magic, and an evil, shape-shifting sorcerer of frightening cunning and power. Working together, the children learn the astonishing secret of Council Hill. Louisville author Hap Arnold deftly weaves strands of Native American and East Indian lore intoa rousing yarn that will appeal to young and old alike. The stories language is taut, yet lilting, well-suiting for reading aloud. Expressive illustrations by artist Kieran Wathen enhance the text. The chapters are an ideal length for a bed-time read for 5-10 year olds. With its rich mixture of magical and fantasy elements, the book is reminiscent of C.S. Lewis, Tolkien, and Kipling. It promises an appealing American complement to the likes of the Harry Potter Series-Review in Louisville Parent by Chuck Semple.Arnold, Hap is the author of 'Secret of Spring Mill' with ISBN 9780970080912 and ISBN 0970080913.
