Astrologer's Apprentice (astrotheologian) (volume 1) [Paperback]

Family circumstances force seventeen year old Robert to give up his suburban prep school existence for a new life in the country, where he develops an intense relationship with his eccentric Uncle Rufus. What starts out as harmless fun with astrology grows into a strong spiritual bond that leads Rufus to confide his obsession. He wants to test the astrological hypothesis. What Robert hoped was a flight of fancy begins to take the shape of a crazy quest. Not only do Rufuss ideas wrinkle Roberts moral fabric, but they pose a real danger to the young mans friends. He begins to realize that Rufus has fallen is with some very powerful people.
