DESCRIPTION

Taken is the first of five books about the Wikk family. The story weaves the future into an adventure of archeology and mystery, an intriguing mix of both National Treasure and City of Ember.

The theme to the series is Truth, and what Truth is (as the books unfold the truth alluded to is revealed to be Christ, and what he did for mankind). The Wikks are believers but their faith does not come to the forefront until the second and third book, as they deal with their own imperfections.

The Übel in the story are searching for the “secret” to eternal life, thinking it can be found in this life. The idea for the series is to be a clean, fun, adventure filled with action and mystery that will hook the reader into the series. As the series progresses and the characters become the reader’s friends, they will look to them as guides on a journey to discover Truth.
