Publisher's Synopsis
I Do Not Like Rollercoasters. My name is Joan. I'm twelve going on thirteen, and I have straight brown hair and bright blue eyes, so you can picture me. I was at the amusement park with my best friend Michelle, a mature thirteen-year-old with darker and longer curly hair and hazel eyes. I don't particularly like thrill rides, but Michelle and I had been having fun on the water rides and eating some candy. It was in June, so obviously the water rides cooled us off. Unfortunately, Michelle, who Loves rollercoasters, (yeah, talk about opposites), pointed out some young adults filming their kids riding an insanely tall and fast coaster. "Oh, no." I thought despairingly. But when Michelle wants something... That's right. Joan doesn't like rollercoasters. But when she and Michelle, along with 13 and 14-year-old boys Cayden and Michelle, all ride one together, one thing after another happens, leading them into the adventure of their lifetime. The first round of the coaster is fine, but they find themselves stuck at their spots at the end of it. Everyone else gets off, and the coaster goes, seemingly of its own accord, for another round. The rollercoaster, holding the four horrified Christian kids, goes off onto a rusty track and into the forest. They shelter in a hollow tree as a storm passes through the area. Then, from the tree, they enter an unfamiliar place...An underground city. Called Pentile.Now the tired friends find they supposedly have a mission, from God, to stop demons from trying to take over the place. Shall they believe they truly have this mission? Will they survive through it? Or will they despair and go back home?This is where I leave you. Joining Joan, Michelle, Michael, and Cayden in the craziest days of their life is up to you. And if you start to wonder if there's no way you'll make it through whatever is going on, follow a Saint's words to Joan Garland when she appeared to her: Never lose hope and trust.
