Have Amber -- Will Travel Keith Vlasak

Amber, the middle of the five Dylan siblings, is special. When she was a baby, her older sister, Paige, a college freshman, used to read baby Amber bedtime stories. She always changed the tales into "Princess Amber" adventures. Now, even their father has started calling his "difficult" daughter "Princess," although usually sarcastically when they're arguing, like the time she came down to breakfast with a sprained ankle and refused to explain what happened. But then, how could she - when she sprained it when she was standing on the high battlements at Camelot waving her fist at an invading army and King Arthur grabbed her wrist and yanked her down when they started shooting arrows at her?


Something, somewhere along the line, made Princess Amber's adventures real. The siblings would go to sleep one evening or another and find themselves somewhere else, somewhere real enough they came home with scars, came home after the princess dealt with whatever quest she was on and they woke up in their own beds.


And then one day after dinner, when they are wide awake, they are snatched out of their home and dropped in a very gray very lifeless place near some ancient Egyptian ruins in absolute lifeless silence without even an insect ... but, surprise, with Paige's English professor and a guy classmate from college who's been trying to get a date with Paige.


There's one other person, too - a crying little girl. She's not really there, though, wherever there is. They see her, but they can't hear her and their hands go right through her.


Have Amber - Will Travel is a fun, family, fantasy quest adventure through a dark and deadly ancient underworld. There's action, adventure, magic, some laughs and a little romance. This tale is suitable for all ages.
