However, his world is suddenly turned upside down when he finds the Book of Typherion.Far from home in a strange land, Valor is led on a journey of discovery: one that will test his strength, cunning and fortitude. As he learns more about the mysterious book, he is drawn into a war that has been waging since time began.

An exceptional book! Well written and the protagonist's strong character coupled with Dusty's humour makes for a perfect match. The book starts a little slow so you need you give it 4-5 chapters but I promise it's worth it! I agree with another poster here - it's def a fantasy book but not high fantasy where everything and everyone is magic. It's closer to Tolkien in that there is little magic and powers but a true fantasy world. The author has done an amazing job at weaving the world of Aedra together to make it a believable place. I highly recommend you read it. Now on to the second one!!! Can't wait!

This book is a horrible rip-off of Harry Potter, with a little Alice in Wonderland thrown in. Ugh!!! And, dear Author, please learn how to use phrases, punctuation, spell-check and grammar correctly. (Actually, I think the author is a kid, trying to sound like a grown-up.)

I loved it. It needs some editing but if you can get past that you'll love it too. It's a very fun book to read and very creative and original.

Amazing, amazing, amazing! i loved it. the book takes you to so many interesting places. i loved the part with fontaine and the battle with the behemoth, it was very exciting. the peacocks were completing crazy and never made sense but they werent suppose to so it was a very fun chapter. Overall it was a great story and you just want to keep reading more and more!

I've been reading this book with my daughter and to be honest i think i like it more than she does. It's probably the best book i've found on here! The story is really cool and the book is the perfect length.

An incredible book. I would have easily paid $15 for this. It ranks with the likes of Harry Potter and the Hobbit. I'm not sure why this isn't a best seller but I bet it soon will be. I would recommend it to anyone who has ever read the Hobbit and wondered when the next great childrens fantasy novel will come out!
