When seventeen-year-old Justin Holmes wakes from a strange, amnesic slumber, he finds himself in an unknown land, far from his rural Pennsylvania hometown. With no memory of how he came to be in this world of vast grasslands, sky-scraping mountains and double moons, his only choice is to cling for dear life to some unlikely allies: an eccentric old hermit, and a cold-blooded, duplicitous mercenary.
When unwillingly recruited to help rescue a kidnapped young woman, Justin is swept off into the wild on a dangerous mission, all while struggling to learn what twist of fate has landed him in this bizarre alternate dimension. But lurking in the shadows of this fantasy realm is something darker and far more sinister than kidnappers; an ancient, demonic evil, that while threatening the peace of an entire world, may also hold the secret of Justin's destiny and the key to his gateway home.
Questions and mysteries abound as Justin is pulled deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole, farther and farther along The Path Less Traveled…
A thrilling, epic fantasy adventure suitable for young adults and experienced readers alike
