But Mead's Hollow holds more secrets than any of them had ever imagined. In this tremendously satisfying conclusion to the story of the transformation of the world of Atherton, readers will experience a world turned inside out and a spectacular flood (reminiscent of Noah's flood of the past to the global warming of the future); former enemies forced to work together in the name of survival; surprising histories concerning the creator of Atherton, Dr. Harding, and his partner Dr. Kincaid, and a shocking revelation about Edgar's own past. Best of all, the trip to Mead's Hollow leads to a dangerous--and extraordinary--expedition through the interior of Atherton that will titillate imaginations for a long time to come. With themes evocative of Paradise Lost and Dante's Inferno, expect Book 2 to give readers plenty to sink their teeth into.
