Publisher's Synopsis
Ian and Rachael Allen live deep in the jungle as pioneer missionaries to the unreached Kilo tribe, who have no knowledge of the true God. They and their team want to change that by translating the Bible into the Kilo language, so the tribe can learn about the Savior who can rescue them from spiritual darkness. But first they'll have to survive life in the jungle.
An exciting discovery has the tribe convinced that a mythical creature has returned and must be hunted down to protect their village. When the hunt takes a dark turn, the missionaries are faced with life-and-death choices they never thought they would have to make.
The stakes are high in Legend of the Wapa--the first in a series from the world of jungle missions.
"God bless the outposts, the first heralds of mercy, and everywhere may the Lord's kingdom come and His name be glorified!" ---Charles Spurgeon
"Consider the call...from round about: 'Come over and help us!' And even the call from the damned souls below: 'Send Lazarus to my brothers that they come not to this place!' Impelled, then, by these voices, I dare not stay home" ---Jim Elliott
"This book will thrill those who like a good story, and inspire them toward more support and participation in the real-life adventure of world missions." --Dr. Harry L. Reeder, III, Sr. Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church
"You'll find yourself turning pages to solve the mystery and finish the adventure, but you might also be surprised that Ian's life appeals to something deep inside of you, something that you've maybe never fully identified." --Paul Gardner, Director, Camp Barakel
"Full of rich details of the realities of missionary life in least-reached places...humorous and engaging. I am a missionary because a storyteller captured my imagination. Ernie is a missions-motivating storyteller for a new generation." --Elizabeth McAdams, Student Ministries/Camp Missionary
"I started reading and couldn't put the book down...a masterful job! I'm sure you'll find yourself, along with me, moved to reflection, laughter, and tears. I look forward to the next book in the series--may the Lord use this for his glory!" --Dr. Marty Marriott, President, Maranatha Baptist University
"Should be on the bookshelf of the potential missionaries of tomorrow." --Paul Seger, General Director, Biblical Ministries Worldwide
