When thirteen-year-old Jaxon's father died, he thought all was lost, until he was taken to a new world. Living his whole life on a dying planet, he never imagined he would see trees, grass, or blue sky. He never even knew they even existed. Overjoyed at the possibility of a new life, Jaxon soon learns that it might not be possible after all. He entered this new world through a forbidden cave with ties to an evil wizard, and the punishment for being inside is death. And if that wasn't bad enough, the monsters of this world seem to be drawn to him. Set on a path where Jaxon will have to defend his right just to live, he must learn to rely on his newfound friends or all might be lost.
