In the Desert - The Adventures of Archibald and Jockabeb
There are nine individual books in The Adventures of Archibald & Jockabeb series. The books should be read in order. The fourth book in the series is In the Desert.

Having narrowly escaped an evil shaman and supernatural black jaguar deep within the Amazon jungle in Book 3, the fourth book in The Adventures of Archibald and Jockabeb series finds the two brothers on school field trip to California. After the boys are accidently stranded in the middle of the night in a remote part of the Sonoran Desert, they meet a mysterious old man named George Washington Natonto. Accepting the old man's offer to spend the rest of the night at his underground home at Lizard Flats launches one of the boys' strangest and most harrowing adventures to date.

As a gray-haired Gypsy woman's tarot card reading, an ancient legend of how a young Indian girl battled a renegade warrior, and several creatures from Jockabeb's recurring nightmares all begin to converge, the trapped brothers decide it's high time to escape Lizard flats and start their perilous journey back to civilization. What they next encounter in a subterranean grotto, and later out in the scorching desert, provide a true test of their survival skills and the power of the last bit of Haktu's blue feather.

In addition to learning interesting facts about tarot cards, the history of Southern California, and what lives in the Sonoran Desert, the reader will once again witness the classic battle between good and evil play out as Archibald and Jockabeb continue to mature as young teenagers.

About the Author

After retiring as a high successful chairman and CEO of a Fortune 500 company, Art Collins didn’t write the book on leadership that many had expected he would. Instead, he authored a series of books for older children and teenagers. The Adventures of Archibald and Jockabeb series chronicles two young brothers as they grow from twelve and eleven into their mid-teens, together with the harrowing adventures they experience along the way. In addition to serving to the boards of directors of four large corporations, Mr. Collins currently advises a private equity firm, serves on the boards of two academic institutions, and is involved in several charitable organizations. Over the years, he has testified before Congress, interacted with numerous governmental bodies inside and outside the United States, chaired his industry association group, and been recognized for his leadership in commercial and civic activities. An avid outdoorsman, he currently splits his time between Chicago and the Vail Valley in Colorado.
