Mysterious dreams, quirky friends, and monsters at school. When this timid boy visits another world, can he accept his destined path?

Fionn Hurley feels different. Worried his nightmares might be real, the confused twelve-year-old suffers visions where he battles terrifying beasts and wakes up covered in fast-healing wounds. But when a lion cub appears beside his reflection, the curious boy travels to a mystical land… and finds enemies plotting his death.

Learning he’s inherited powerful magical gifts, Fionn is shocked to hear a crazed sorcerer wants his blood to resurrect a demon. But after finding a clue to defeating the wicked enchanter, the brave young hero discovers three deadly trials stand between him and survival.

With everyone out to get him, can Fionn embrace his abilities and save the people he loves?
