Centuries ago, giants and humans lived together on earth. The giants were cruel creatures that dominated the humans and eventually planned to eradicate them. But before they could carry out their terrible plan, they were exiled to Terris, a strange land in the clouds. Now, Taran, a descendent of both giant and human ancestors, discovers a secret portal into this mysterious place and meets his long lost twin brother, Jack, who plans to restore the giants to earth and dominate the humans once again. Taran must use all his skills and instincts to discern friend from foe, stop Jack and keep peace on the earth. Learn the real story behind the old English folk tale of Jack and the Beanstalk. This is the first book in the Terris Trilogy.
Great story. Very different than what I expected. But truly surprised and enjoyed it immensely. I can’t wait to dive deeper in to the other 2 books in the series. Great job Timothy James! Well written. A fun, entertaining and enchanting story in a far away land.
Ok, this was a ton of fun to read. You've never heard the story quite this way, I assure you. Adventure, Fantasy, worlds colliding, intrigue, deception, magic, and a hint of romance - yep, it's all here. The great storytelling draws you in, the fast pace keeps you there, and the ending is perfectly satisfying while still leaving you wanting more. This is a perfect choice for a holiday read.
