Professor William Race, one of the youngest members of the staff in the Ancient Languages Department at NYU, receives an intriguing assignment from the U.S. government: he is to translate an ancient manuscript which contains clues to the location of a mythical Incan idol that possesses fearsome powers. Eventually, Race finds himself in the Andes, helping a team of scientists and army operatives to open an ancient temple--and, in the process, apparently unleashing the forces of an ancient curse. Meanwhile, the Americans aren't the only people who want to get their hands on that idol.... This is a pith-helmet-and-treasure-map adventure in the tradition of Indiana Jones, though Reilly adds a contemporary edge with lots of high-tech weaponry.

Dickens's heavily autobiographical novel describing a young man's rise in the world is a classic coming-of-age story. David Copperfield, the narrator, is orphaned at a tender age and raised first by his brutal stepfather (who halts his schooling and sends him to work in a factory--as did Dickens's own father), then by a kindly aunt. He trains for a career in law, but eventually becomes a writer. An ill-advised marriage brings him considerable unhappiness, but not long after his wife's death he is reunited with his childhood sweetheart. A sprawling portrait of life in Victorian England, DAVID COPPERFIELD is perhaps Dickens's most popular work, and it contains many of the characters--Mr. Micawber, Uriah Heep, Betsey Trotwood, Steerforth, and Little Emily--who gave Dickens his reputation as the finest literary portraitist of his age.
