John Paulsen has created a captivating story in which the lives of two young Americans have been swept up in an adventure that began centuries ago in a time and place completely different from what they know.
Arivaca teaches these young adults about themselves and a culture that still thrives today, but has a secret war between good and evil that they become involved in. The culture is Judaism and although the characters are not Jewish themselves, they become involved in the events surrounding the underground war. Using relics thought to be lost, but in Paulsen's literary world they were hidden away to be kept safe, the main characters engage in the protection of the relics.
Full of action, adventure and a bit of romance, this novel gives you a bit of everything. I enjoyed having a non-Christian centered book about Jewish relics and believe it will be informative as well as entertaining.
