Adventures of Ariel and Eden and The Lost Treasures of Zion

The Adventures of Ariel and Eden takes place in the land of Zion, many years after the Babylonian captivity of the Jews. A young pair of orphans set off on an adventure to find the lost treasures of Zion, hidden atop a mountain in a famous cave. The cave and its treasures are protected by an old wizard named Zaphirus. The villagers know all about Zaphirus and the legends of the caves. Everyone is afraid to go there after hearing all sorts of awful legends about the adventurous fools who tried to steal the great treasures. Thirteen-year-olds Ariel and Eden have been to the caves before but have never gone inside, until one day ... Ariel and Eden are mentored by a village elder by the name of Zephaniah. He tells them wondrous stories about the treasures, the former temple, and the traditions and folklore of their people. Now there was a treacherous man known only as "The Dark One" and his two evil sons, who keep a close eye on Zephaniah, Ariel, and Eden. A secret is about to unfold and a miraculous adventure will take place when Ariel learns he is a "Seeker." K.L. Naranjo lives in Tampa, Florida, with her husband Lester.
