[ Book 1 in The Dark is Rising sequence ]

\"Over Sea Under Stone\" features the three Drew children coming to stay with Merriman Lyon. In his attic, they find an ancient treasure map that leads to a hidden grail -- if they can only figure out what the map\'s writing and symbols mean. But they are not the only ones who are looking for the grail -- three sinister people are in pursuit.

Susan Cooper\'s \"Dark is Rising\" sequence has joined the Prydain Chronicles and \"The Hobbit\" as timeless books that are technically for kids, but not necessarily JUST for kids. With her use of myth and folklore, rich language, and a time-spanning battle between good and evil, Cooper spins up a rare tale in her majestic prose.
