About this ebook

“Nothing special” is the best way to describe Owen Reeder—at least that's what he's been told all his life. When a stranger visits his father's bookstore, Owen's ordinary life spirals out of control and right into a world he didn't even know existed. Owen believes the only gift he possesses is his ability to devour books, but he is about to be forced into a battle that will affect two worlds: his and the unknown world of the Lowlands. Perfect for readers ages 10 to 14 who enjoy a fast-paced story packed with action, fantasy, and humor.

Ratings and reviews

Even though this book was written for teens I couldn't put it down. I love the way the authors have intertwined truth of our Lord in with fantasy. I think both teens and adults who love fantasy and have a heart for God will love this series.

Good Book, probably a B to B-. It has a good message but can be a bit corny at times. Overall, I would recommend it!.

Great book, loved it!
