Publisher's Synopsis
What began as an ordinary outing turned into adventure when a Hebrew scholar and his friend coincidentally meet a rather outgoing stranger. That's when their planned hike in the forest in "Maya land" takes an unexpected turn. Soon Art and Lane have teamed up with the "interloper," - a man named Claude, and find more adventure than they bargained for! But isn't that how all real adventures start? This one begins with a mysterious Mayan vase purchased in a gift shop? And with the clues inside, soon these new friends are deep into the mysteries of the Maya, their temples and pyramids. Dorothy Robbins spins a great adventure in a fictionalized Maya land filled with impossible circumstances and amazing discoveries, where anything can happen along the way. You will never get bored following Art, Lane and Claude around in "Maya land" where, in the end, the interloper, Claude, becomes the "star" in a surprising episode. Mrs. Robbins writings include both prose and poetry. She has been published on the web and in many Christian magazines. These include Ramparts, The Institute for Creation Research, The Presbyterian Guardian, The Banner, The Christian Home and School and The Christian Observer.
