Pillars of Time — Andreas Oertel

In their last adventure, the archaeolojesters - Cody, Eric, and Rachel - were clever enough to fool the people in their town and expert archaeologists with a homemade ''ancient Egyptian'' tablet. Their exploits brought some much - needed tourism to Sultana, Manitoba, and earned them a trip to Cairo to see some real Egyptian artifacts. But trouble seems to follow these kids wherever they go! Instead of exploring a foreign country, they find themselves on a rescue mission in a world beyond their imagination. Will their quick thinking and knack for history be enough to get them home? Modern - day adventure and ancient civilizations meet in Book 2 of ''The Archaolojesters'' series.
