Product Description
Ellis, a bored teenager from an overly structured and drab future Earth, is transported to a mystical fantasy world where humans are just one of the many races of humanoid creatures; and it's never boring … insanely dangerous and deadly, maybe, but never boring.Through ridiculous circumstances, misunderstandings, and just the worst kind of luck ever, he has his name changed and becomes the only hope to keep a collapsing Giverkind Alliance, made up of many unified races, from falling into chaos and war. To achieve this, the Giverkind leaders believe they should return Ellis to the humans who had separated from the alliance many years earlier. Surely, this will bring them back … How could it possibly go wrong? What difference does it make where the boy is from? Aren’t all humans the same? They all look alike.With an entourage of … let’s just say differing personality types, the human boy and some new non-human allies will have to put their differences aside if they are to make the journey to the human kingdom of Yolanrym. Chances of success are slim, and survival is only a best-case scenario, as avoiding hideous creatures and certain death is the least of their worries—yes, there are worse things than death.From the onset, a mysterious being follows their progress, lurking in the shadows—watching. All the while, Ellis struggles to grasp the primitive and all too often violent nature of his sword and staff-wielding traveling companions, as well as the reality that magic not only exists, but it has somehow manifested within him.Not to mention, a dark demonic force has vowed that the boy shall perish before reaching the city of Yolanrym … Ellis has really come to regret having taken that joy ride on the waste disposal chute into a molecular disruptor portal—definitely not one of his better pranks.
