Many Waters by Madeleine L'Engle

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book is a continuation of Madeleine L'Engle's Time Trilogy, but in this book the action is focused on Sandy and Dennys, the twins who have always been the "normal" ones in their family. They come home one winter's day and enter their parent's lab, not noticing the note on the door to stay out. While looking for the dutch cocoa to make themselves a hot drink, they decide to play around with the new computer in the lab and type in a message about wanting to be in a warm place that is sparsely populated. The next thing they know, Sandy and Dennys are on a desert being approached by a strangely small man. Their adventures trying to stay alive and find a way to go back home include unicorns, mammoths, seraphim, nephilim, manticores, and names they have heard before only in Bible stories - Noah and Enoch and Japheth. Have they traveled through time or taken a quantum leap? Read this story to find out.
