The Copper Scroll: Masa Chronicles, authored by Nicholas Teeguarden, is an extraordinary
piece of literature that has made a significant impact on me. The last time I felt this level of
excitement about a book was while reading the Bible for the first time, a bold comparison,
but one that underscores the author's exceptional God given talent!

Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone with tweens or young adults in
their lives, as it deserves a prominent place on their bookshelves. In fact, I shared it with my
teenage daughter, who found it to be nothing short of epic. Nicholas Teeguarden is a
sensational writer, and I eagerly anticipate what he will produce next, as this work has
undoubtedly set a high standard for future literary endeavors.

The Masa Chronicles: The Copper Scroll by Nicholas Teeguarden follows the journey of Joshua Bennett, an archeology student inspired by his grandfather's story of secret treasures. He learned about an ancient mystery connected to the Dead Sea Scrolls, which got him fixated. He went on an adventure to make discoveries along with his team, Noa, Tal, and Avi. They uncovered a series of clues that led them from Qumran to Masada and finally to Capernaum. They also discovered artifacts that shed a new light on the life and ministry of Jesus through the eyes of his disciple, Andrew. While Joshua and his team tried to protect these relics from those who wanted to bury the truth, they found themselves at the center of great risks and global unrest, with their every move watched and their discoveries thrust into the spotlight.

I found The Copper Scroll to be very interesting, as if I were watching one of my favorite thriller movies. Joshua’s journey was fascinating; his curiosity and unwavering determination reminded me of those days when my hobby became an obsession. I enjoyed the lively and engaging interaction between Joshua and Noa—her quick wit and inner strength made the story more relatable and their relationship more natural. Nicholas Teeguarden’s writing style is easy to follow, and the characters were developed. The part of this book that impressed me the most was the tension between faith and proof. The tensions were so powerful, especially toward the end chapter when the meaning of the artifacts started spreading. The Copper Scroll is more of a quest for truth than a treasure hunt. I recommend this book to lovers of historical books with a bit of danger—it put me in the mood to find out about Qumran myself.
