The Canopus Conundrum
A nuclear war could ruin your whole day. A World War is brewing on Canopus V. Six children are missing from the families of world leaders. Their parents are working for world peace. No one can find the children; maybe no one wants to find them. The children come from countries and families utterly opposed to one another. What shape will they be in after four months of captivity? After nearly a year apart, Jerry Saunders of Earth and Kelvin Merritt of Caris III are given the task of finding the children. Jerry must leave Earth without his parents. Learning to pilot their personal spaceship leads the boys to more excitement than they want! Tensions run high during the mission. Their search is fraught with perils. Little Bo Peep has a cakewalk finding her sheep compared to Jerry and Kelvin! They must succeed before a secret plan destroys the world. Rescuing the missing becomes the least of their problems! Jerry and Kelvin must apply important lessons from school or see a world perish. Under the spectacular nightfire of Canopus V, the boys face one no-win situation after another as they work to solve The Canopus Conundrum before time runs out!

Publisher: East African Publishers
Release Date: 2001
This is the sixth title in a series of titles focussing on the oral literary tradition of various East African ethnic groups - the Maasai, the Embu and the Mbeere amongst others - published by EAEP. Okumba Miruka, particularly known for his contribution to oral literature in Kenya, sets out to contexualise his subject by first explaining about the Luo people and culture - from migratory patterns and economic activity to the concept of divinity, death, warfare and Luo cuisine and eating culture. He then approaches the oral literature of the Luo through the genres of riddles, proverbs, poetry and narratives. For each genre, he offers a general introduction, notes on style, convention, performance and social function, and a wide range of samples, or 'primary texts' with commentaries.
