– March across medieval Europe with an army of misfits led by a boy prophet.
– Train with stoned and unlikely killers who terrorize Middle East rulers.

– Touch the petrified body of the world’s first man, Adam.
– Get juicy gossip from a fresh, fast-talking, funny vegetable.
Orphans, Assassins and the Existential Eggplant shimmies through the early 13th century with a gorgeous alchemist, teenage genius and a 600 year-old shrunken and truly heroic eggplant that can speak to whomever wears it.
In search of the fabled Lost Stone of Eden, they cross Europe and the Mediterranean with the Children’s Crusade, hijack a caravan in the Sahara desert, live with hashish-fueled Assassins in the mountains of Persia and rediscover paradise on the island of Bahrain.
