Book Description

July 14 2004 The Cooper Kids Adventure Series (Book 3)

An angry terror lurks at the bottom of a dark pit…

Jay and Lila Cooper are back for another adventure, this time in search of a young treasure-seeker whose ambitions drove him to the bottom of a pit, never to return. In their struggle to understand what happened to him, the Coopers learn of a greedy, man-eating creature known as Ha-Raphah, who terrorizes locals into worshiping him. Although they are certain he is extremely dangerous, Jay and Lila are determined to uncover the truth.

This story of dangerous exploits and a mission to stop an evil that holds a population in its crushing grip will have you hooked from start to finish.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peretti is a genius storyteller. Nov 20 2010
Format:Paperback
Review by Jill Williamson

Jay and Lila and their archaeologist father, Dr. Cooper, enter the tombs of Anak in search of a missing coworker. Instead, they stumble onto a village where the people follow a bizarre religion. These Anakim people believe that Anak Ha-Raphah is their god and will destroy them if he becomes angry. And Dr. Cooper's meddling in the tombs has angered the god. But Dr. Cooper is not afraid. He must discover what became of his coworker and no false religion will stop him.

Peretti is a genius storyteller. Even adults would enjoy these Cooper Kids Adventure classics that follow Dr. Cooper and his children as they explore this planet for history that proves the Bible is fact. As always, Peretti writes fast-paced, scary stories of good vs. evil. I enjoyed watching this mystery unfold. If you've never read a Cooper Kids book, I highly recommend them for readers ages 10 to adult.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, great message! Feb 16 2004
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This is a great book! It is very suspenseful, which makes it a perfect read for kids who like suspense. It will be too suspenseful for kids ages 6 & 7 and probably 8, too. The suggested age level is ages 10-14. It has a great message-how greed can overtake you! The Coopers- Jay, Lila, and Dr. Cooper go on another archeological adventure, searching for ancient artifacts. Filled with suspense and harrowing escapes to the very end, this book will keep you very captivated from cover to cover!

By Dave
Format:Paperback
It's Frank Peretti's brilliant novel writing skills...condensed! It's a super-cool family of archeologists--minus a mother--who investigate phenomena in the spirit of Indiana Jones, only with a Christian perspective.

The Coopers are on a nice, run-of-the-mill, routine dig in Israel, when they uncover a huge pit. Then one of their crew falls - or is pulled - down, and never seen again. After being captured by the creepy Yahrrim, the local tribesmen who live in fear of their god, meeting their prophetess, Marah, and encountering a rough and mysterious desert rogue they are finally forced to enter. . .The Tombs of Anak.

Riddles, action, suspense, and coolness are loaded to the gills in this book, just great for young people who want to read some cool stuff without the junk and gore of Illinois Jones, or whatever. And yes, there is Christian material in these books, as another reviewer so angrily stated. Refreshing if you ask me.

Parental warnings: Lots of creepy stuff in this book...the Yahrrim are scary - when we first meet them, they're in the middle of an underground ritual - and lots of other scary things happen in the book. I read them when I was younger, and I thought they were cool. And I never needed the Arkansas Jones movies!

The Tombs of Anak is a very creepy book. It's full of excitement and although it is Peretti's children's series it is a very entertaining book for the older reader as well. Read more

OK, you like the Indiana Jones movies for their action, adventure, and historical interest. However, you can't show your children those movies for awhile, because they have PG-13... Read more
