Présentation de l'éditeur
Jak and the Scarlet Thread is the first of a series of young adult fantasy adventure novels that will take readers through the entire Bible, starting with the tumultuous first nine chapters of Genesis.
DEATH. It's the one experience everyone will share...except, perhaps, for Jak Hamelton.
An old book whirls 12-year old Jak back to a particular garden paradise where he meets a man and a woman who get into trouble with a snake and allow death and evil to invade the Earth. When a mysterious benefactor offers Jak the opportunity to bring the dead back to life and live forever, it sounds like an impossible dream, that is, until Jak's grandfather begins aging backwards.
But the only weapon Jak's been given doesn't even work yet, and the snake, Beelz, isn't about to give up the Earth without a fight. Besides that, there's the poison...
Is it really possible for the dead to live forever? And what will it take to restore paradise?
