Many Waters Author:Madeleine L'Engle Nothing especially interesting has ever happened to Sandy and Dennys, the run-of-the mill twins in the extraordinary Murry family. Nothing, that is, until the bitter, cold afternoon when, fooling around in their parents' lab, they type on the computer: TAKE ME SOMEPLACE WARM...SOMEPLACE WARM AND SPARSELY POPULATED... Suddenly Sandy and Dennys ... more »are in a harsh desert land where, if they believe in unicorns, they can find unicorns, and whether they believe or not, mammoths and manticores will find them. They are rescued by Japeth, a man from the nearby oasis, whose sister, Yalith both boys fall in love with. Soon embroiled in the conflicts of this remote, fantastic place in which winged seraphim, perilous but beautiful nephilim, and small, long-lived humans coexist uneasily, the twins discover they have more to do than simply get themselves home. "Many Waters" continues the distinguished and popular Time Trilogy made up of "A Wrinkle in Time", "A Wind in the Door" and "A Swifly Tilting Planet".« less
