The Silver Coin (Ancient Elements) (Volume 3)By Marie SontagDescription:
The Mycenaean captain laughed and addressed his prisoners. "By the time people realize you're missing, you'll all be slaves of Greek merchants or landowners. And I’ll be that much richer!" Sam swallowed hard. Now I’ll never find Uncle Zim. And who will want to buy a crippled slave? Numbness overtook him as he saw his hopes, like the sail of the Phoenician ship, go up in flames. Book Takeaway:Any benefits derived from wealth, power, or revenge pale in comparison to the riches found in family, love, and forgiveness. Why the author wrote this book:Book three of the Ancient Elements Series allows Sam to finally reach his ultimate goal, reuniting with his Uncle Zim in Phoenicia. The book also reveals more about the ancient Egyptian culture and the politics of its day, while allowing for the introduction of the Mycenaean, Cretan and Canaanite cultures as the series comes full circle. |
