BLURB
A mysterious forest near the cozy
town of Herogate, England is more than what it seems. The gnarled trees appear
to breathe, gloomy storms follow you around, and prowling shadows come to life
before your very eyes. Referred to as The Dark Wood by the townsfolk, the
forest is guarded by a strange old man and creatures not of this world. Even
the locals never set foot in the bewitched woodlands, and trespassers have a
way of turning up dead.
When Noah Walters moves to town
with his parents, his father—a contractor working on a top secret project for a
private security firm—makes Noah promise to never enter those woods; but he
doesn’t know that Fate has other plans.
Noah and his new best friends,
Ethan and Skye, are chased into The Dark Wood by Grucker, a schoolyard bully,
and their lives are changed forever. They are forced into the heart of the
forest, where they discover a lost fairy who needs their help to find her way
back home before it's too late.
Join Noah and his friends on a
magical adventure as they race against time and plunge headfirst into the
unknown. They are challenged with secrets to keep, a dangerous mission to
accomplish, and a test of courage that will bring them face-to-face with magical
creatures they thought only existed in fairy tales.
This is more than a tale of
discovery, mystery, and excitement; it’s an epic adventure that will usher you
into a world where magic is in the air, in the trees, and in every heart.
