Readers can follow the exciting events as they unravel in Amber Lockes: the capture of Terrorlanz's Sight, author Edward Klaiber's gripping young adult fantasy novel. When Peter Lockes returns from his Amazon expedition, he brings with him not only the gumfalour flower, but also an ancient artifact, the sevnma arc that resembles a book of sorts. However, he is unable to open it despite many attempts. Amber, his genius daughter with an IQ of 240, is only thirteen but already in grad school. She takes over her father in opening the ancient book. After some frustrated tries, she is successful, only to be sucked in the sevnma arc. Inside, Amber learns that the only way out is to embark on a dangerous journey where death will chase her every step. Can a mere child like her with no combat skills survive in a treacherous world that is out to get her? In the battle for survival, Amber must rely on her most powerful weapon-her brain-to get her through. Whether she makes it or not, readers can find out as they immerse in this riveting science fiction.
