(3) YA Translated by Jeremy Tiang. Chinese teens Tianyi and Kai team up with other treasure hunters to find lost riches in a (fictional) desert. The group must work together against enemies both natural and supernatural in order to survive their ordeals. Unusual for the genre of adventure/survival thriller, the supernatural elements are incorporated matter-of-factly. Lots of action and intrigue make for an entertaining read.
