| Angel in Vegas |
| The Chronicles of Noah Sark |
|
author: Norma Howe
|
Who is Noah Sark, really? And what is he doing in the men’s room at Angelo’s All-Day All-Nite Donut Emporium in Las Vegas? No use asking him; he doesn’t know, either.
Only Norma Howe, author of the beloved Blue Avenger books and a gleeful practitioner of comedic satire, could blend in a devilishly funny mix one (or maybe two) budding teenage romances, a psychic fair, a dead frog, a headful of cascading blond ringlets, glorious Las Vegas in all its glitz and sparkle -- including Elvis and his hound dog, erupting volcanoes, and a Seeing-Eye-dog video poker player -- with the dramatic back story of Princess Di in Paris, to portray an unlikely teen angel on a desperate mission to save a certain unknown girl from a certain unknown disaster.
But, reader, never fear. All will be revealed in good time, so long as you resist, as Noah himself says, "the siren call of logic."
