What to expect
In this seventeenth Science Adventure, Rick and Scotty and the Spindrift Science Foundation staff (including Hartson Brant, Hobart Zircon, and Julius Weiss) join forces with South American geoscientists on the resort island of San Luz, off the coast of South America. There, they are faced with the ancient volcano of El Viejo, which shows every sign of getting ready to erupt and consume the entire island in a devastating disaster, like the one that obliterated the island of Krakatoa back in 1883. Of course, saving the island is thwarted at every turn because the governor is kidnapped and the lieutenant governor has his own nefarious plans for the fate of the small nation. But, the rumbling mountain waits for no one, so Rick and Scotty work against time to find the governor, the only one with the power to order the distracted military to help save the inhabitants of the island. The final plan to rescue San Luz will have you sitting up in disbelief. Besides all the other usual fun of the Rick Brant science adventure books, The Flaming Mountain is jammed pack full of fun geology facts and even includes Spanish for you to learn.
