About Escape the Amoz

 

Fourteen-year-old Caleb GoodArcher has no idea that a trip to the city will tear his life apart. On that horrible day, Caleb is confronted with the true oppressive nature of the relationship between the technologically-superior Amoz and his people, the Kinz. During the next three years, the Amoz grip tightens as the planet drifts out of its orbit, throwing it and its inhabitants into a never-ending winter. A mysterious man named Galax offers to transport the Kinz to a new home, but Caleb has to deliver his people from the Amoz first.

Escape the Amoz is an allegory inspired by the story of Moses. This novel is a pleasurable read for any middle school or high school student. It also lends itself well to homeschool curriculum. Study it for its own merits or include the novel in unit studies on Biblical/Ancient history, World War II, Apartheid in South Africa, or the United States Civil Rights Movement. The study guide includes projects, essay/paper ideas, and tests with answer key.
