Von der hinteren Coverseite

Fourteen-year-old Joshua Adams wakes from a fifty-year sleep to find that he has escaped nuclear war--and that the genetically altered races of Earth now hail his awakening as the first fulfillment of an ancient prophecy.

For of old it was sung that the Seven Sleepers would awaken to unite their strength with Goel and join in battle against the wicked priests of the Sanhedrin.  But the choice of Josh and each member of the quest is a dangerous one.  He must survive not only the peril of the Sanhedrin but the doubt that threatens his faith and, ultimately, his commitment to Goel, his spiritual champion.




Gilbert Morris began a high school teaching career in 1956 after first pastoring several Southern Baptist churches in Arkansas.  In 1962 he was named to the staff of Ouachita Baptist University, where he taught English and later served as department chairman.  After twenty-four years at Ouachita, he accepted a position at World Evangelization College in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  He retired in 1990 to write and publish full time.

It was almost a year after Sarah came that the adventure began. Josh was sound asleep one winter evening when he heard his name being called."Josh! Josh! Wake up!"He sat up at once, shielding his eyes against the overhead light. He saw his father standing over him, his face pale and tense."What's the matter, Dad?" he cried in sudden fear."Son," Mr.Adams said, "we've got to go to the silo. Get dressed quickly."Josh's father was a scientist who did some sort of secret work for the government. The silo had been made into a laboratory." What's wrong, Dad?" Josh asked as he started pulling on his clothes. "Is something wrong with Mom?""No, Ill explain on the way, Josh. I've given Sarah a call, but you go by and make sure she's up. Meet us in the car." He rushed out of the room without another word. Josh scrambled into his clothes, shaking from cold and fear. When he was dressed, he ran down the hall and knocked on Sarah's door. She opened it at once. She was fully dressed too, and Josh saw that her eyes were large with fear."Hurry up," Josh said. "My mom and dad are waiting for us in the car." "Do you know what's wrong?" Sarah whispered.
