Island of the Lost World

Once she thought the hardest thing in the world was killing a venomous snake. Now, Carly Sullivan faces a more monstrous danger, one that imperils not only her life, but also the lives of those she loves most. When Carly and best friend Zo arrive on the Greek island of Kalliste, they expect a summer of Aegean sun and snorkeling. Instead, their friendship and even their very lives are soon in grave peril. After Greek friend Vivi disappears, Carly accidentally witnesses a bizarre Earth Goddess ritual and quickly concludes that cult members abducted Vivi. Determined to find her, Carly grasps for clues to her location. She consults ancient myths and a frightening oracle, explores hidden sea caves, and climbs ancient mountains, all to no avail. But lurking in the back of her mind is this perplexing question: even if she succeeds, what will happen next? Will her efforts turn the evildoer's malevolent eye to another victim-and then yet another? ISLAND OF THE LOST WORLD, the second title in Ms. Page's Lost Worlds series, follows PYRAMID OF THE LOST WORLD, which earned the prestigious Georgia Writers Association's Georgia Author of the Year Award, 2013 children's writing. Coming soon, the final novel of the trilogy is set in Ireland.
