| Publisher Description: Adventure Discovery Danger And even a little Romance A group of students sets out to discover the secrets hidden in an underground world of tunnels and rooms created by an old Haverford professor. Young Devon Dibley has discovered this hidden world and has come across a key that will unlock one tunnel that may hold the answers to the others. Each new discovery has meaning beyond what meets the eye. The students must learn to interpret the images they encounter as individuals... and simultaneously learn to depend on each other. They must overcome their own doubts and the doubts of the people around them. With a nod to C.S. Lewis, the story has moral, theological and interpersonal implications hidden within its pages. Its primary theme is "seeking" and the many ways we approach the journey of discovery. "I very much enjoyed the narrator's voice and found Dibley's character to be intriguing as well. The burgeoning relationship between both the narrator and Dibley also felt true... I found your characters and dialogue to be well done." -Jordana Frankel (Linn Prentis Literary - NYC) "The depth to which Scotto describes the children's personalities, thoughts, and their individual paths of reason is not found in the works of Rowling or Lewis. This wonderfully written metaphor encourages the reader to passionately seek truth and to adamantly stand firm in defense of truth even in the face of ridicule." -Craig G. (Homeschooling Father of 9) |
