The Evolution Conspiracy: Enoch's Children Book VI

 

     The boys are off on another adventure, though they keep vowing they are out of the adventure business. They find out that a quiet professor and his graduate-student wife have made a discovery that may revolutionize everything that science has taught us about evolution. It sounds so simple. Just tell everyone.

     However, in the background is an organization as old as time who's sacred vow is to keep men from finding these things out.

     "Ignorant men are easier to control," their leader says. "Enlightened men, men who think clearly and research issues without fear are impossible to control. What you have learned, Professor Stoddard, we cannot allow to get out. Ever."

     With Sheriff Brady in the hospital in Salt Lake, a victim of a car crash that wasn't an accident, the Morrises once more kidnapped and the secret organization trying to keep truth hidden, Cory and Thomas must once more step up to help.

     Will the boys be able to keep Brady safe in the hospital, rescue Cory's family and keep Thomas' 1992 Ford Explorer safe?    

 

 

     Tobias walked forward and the cliff opened. They walked through into a second channel and continued on for several hundred yards. Suddenly they walked into a broad valley cut deep in the slick rock around them. There were trees and bushes, and lots of grass covering the ground. The sky above them was deep blue. They could hear the voices of many animals across the valley.

     “It must be two miles wide,” Cory breathed.

     “A little more,” Toby smiled.

     Suddenly a mammoth roar exploded on their right. It was as if the foundations of the planet were being ripped out. The boys turned as a gigantic reptilian head the size of a Volkswagen burst out of the trees. A malevolent caricature of a grin spread across its face, and teeth the size of baseball bats glistened in the sunlight. With a second roar the beast charged.

     Cory pushed Virgil back against the rock wall out of the way of the charging beast. Thomas wrapped his arms around Tobias and dove under a large pine carrying the smaller boy with him. The beast ignored Cory and Virgil and turned on Thomas and Toby, its roar thundering through the area and seemed to tear at their bodies. The beast broke free from the trees.

     Cory gasped and shouted, “Tyrannosaurus!”

     "Allosaurus!" Thomas responded.

     "Frillow!" Toby yelled, struggling to get free of Thomas. "Let me go, Thomas! She thinks you're attacking me!"

     Thomas dragged Toby further back under the trees while the huge dinosaur advanced on them, still roaring.

     "What do you mean?" Thomas yelled above the roar.

     Toby and Thomas realized this adventure was growing bigger than any they'd ever had before.
