The Gold People (Archetypal Worlds, #2)

After an earthquake, an archetypal land opens for Meggin, Stephanie, and Beam. There, they encounter a dog-like Sphinx, who serves as their guide, even beyond his death. They are challenged to solve the riddle of how to save the Gold People and to stop the continual demand of sacrfices by the giant Wormsak. The ending shows us the way in which fantasy can pour into reality.
