All Gavin Lewis wanted was a week to forget his awful summer. When he discovers a resurrected Celt in a museum exhibit, memories of his ex-girlfriend and dead dog become the least of his problems, especially when the powerful necromancer who raised her shows up—ready to kill anyone who gets in the way. Along with his best friend Topher and sister Amber, Gavin and his new two-thousand-year old charge, who he names Jobi, flee the museum, banding together to search for answers. But it won’t be easy helping Jobi navigate a now unfamiliar world. The necromancer wants Jobi for herself. And the woman will stop at nothing until she finds her. As myths and monsters are brought back to life to hunt them down, Jobi must use her growing magical powers to save herself and her friends. Along the way, a love triangle closes in as quickly as the necromancer trailing them. It’s in the face of death that they each learn what they have to live for.

Pages : 438
Book Description
The year is 1969... a time when the youth of America is standing up to its elder rulers... when minorities are demanding their fair share of the American pie... a time when an eternal war fought for misbegotten motives and fueled by a continuous stream of some of the most outrageous lies ever fed to a people by its leadership over the previous eight years continues to gut an entire generation... a time when the old values, the old expectations, the old imperatives are knocked flat. Seen through the eyes of 21 year old college senior John Cassell, always out of money and soon to be out of college, it is a saga of coming of age... at a time when the younger generation accepted very little of the old yardsticks and guideposts which traditionally helped that process along. Based on a true story, and the stories of others, the book follows the young man into the year 1969 as he struggles with the decisions expected of him by elders and demanded of him by life. The story leads to a factory job in the pine barrens of his native New Jersey, thence overseas, to the stimulating atmosphere of a youthful community of international wanderers in Great Britain, to an Ireland torn by age old divisions, to France, whose gendarmerie remain brooding and vengeful in the wake of the bloody Sorbonne riots of the previous year, to the Spain of General Franco, and finally to the turbulence of North Africa.
