Ether Series Book 2
by
R. Scott Boyer
Genre:
YA Fantasy
Deep
in the rain forests of Guatemala, an ancient Mayan temple holds a
mythical secret. The legendary Fountain of Youth lies within, but not
all myths are fairy tales. The temple ruins have been seized by the
Core, a sinister cult determined to unlock the mysteries of
immortality. When
their captured friends are spotted near the temple, Bobby and his
cousin Jinx must journey into the dark heart of the jungle to save
them. Harnessing their extraordinary abilities, the boys will
undertake an epic quest to fulfill a centuries-old prophecy. Cut
off from their allies, Bobby and Jinx combat supernatural barriers,
raging rivers, and deadly beasts. They’ll face savage natives,
vengeful ghosts, and ruthless mercenaries who can conjure a person’s
darkest fears. Past and present will collide, with the power of
eternity on the line. Can Bobby fulfill the prophecy and lay the
temple’s spirits to rest? If not, Bobby and his friends may become
permanent inhabitants of the Temple of Eternity.
When
sixteen-year-old Bobby Ether is abducted and brought to the secluded
Jade Academy in Tibet, monks teach him and other special students how
to tap into their Anima--the universal energy that connects all
living things. But the headmistress of the academy is secretly
exploiting the students, looking for genetic triggers to create a new
breed of humans with metaphysical abilities. As his powers increase,
Bobby is thrust into a cesspool of conspiracy, lies, and betrayal. A
jade amulet left by his clairvoyant grandfather may provide answers,
but what exactly is his family's connection to this mysterious
place?
Can
Bobby master his talents in time to uncover the truth? If not, his
fate--and the fate of the entire Jade Academy--may be sealed.
