  <default_description>They had been standing around the lamp, looking&#160;&#160;at Emily holding it in her strong fingers, rubbing&#160;&#160;it. Certainly none of them, not even Rob, expected&#160;&#160;to hear a sepulchral voice behind&#160;&#160;them.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;You called&#160;&#160;me?&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They swung around.

Standing looking down on them was a tall, powerful figure in long smoky green robes and a pale-blue turban. He repeated, &quot;You called me? I am the genie Hythloday, the servant of the lamp.&quot;

A bizarre and terrifying plot to rule New York City means extreme danger for the Austin family and their friends, all of whom are targets for corruption -- or destruction. </default_description>

I couldn't resist its newly issued cover, and I only read this particular L'Engle once, a long time ago, in the beginning of high school. I figured it was time for a re-read.
