The Quest

By Christopher Kaler

Know that one of you will not return…

These are the ominous words spoken by the Oracle of Atlantis as it sends the intrepid Samantha and her teenage crew on their toughest challenge yet: relive the ancient Epic of Gilgamesh. Devising an ingenious method for working out where to head to follow in the footsteps of the Sumerian antihero, they face a series of challenges, each of which hides a lesson. Do they copy Gilgamesh or learn from his mistakes? For learn they must to collect the seven holy keys that will lead them to a prize as yet unknown.

Pushed to the limits of their endurance physically, emotionally and mentally, will Samantha and her friends find the strength to carry on? However, collecting the keys is just the beginning. Unbeknown to the young adventurers, a terrifying journey into the depths of their darkest nightmares still awaits.

And all the while, the dreaded question hangs over them: who will not return?

Packed with mystery and intrigue, The Quest is the third in the fast-paced young-adult sci-fi series Serendipity, an epic in its own right that will appeal to lovers of adventure of all ages.
