Near what appears to be an ordinary town in South Wales lies a forest so ancient that locals believe it hosts otherworldly creatures. But as one boy knows, it is also the gateway to Aecleti; a mysterious and magical country created by the wizard Ambrosius.
Aecleti is being threatened by the evil King Vortigen who is seeking the Stones of Aurora which are said to contain the purest of magic. If the Stones fall into his hands he will become the most powerful ruler of his time, and nobody will be able to stop him.
But there may be hope, for the fate of Aecleti and Willow Creek has fallen to a sixteen-year-old boy, Danny Hallows – a boy whose destiny was written in the stars.
