Drake is in turmoil. As a first-born son in a village on an island above the clouds, he is about to choose his life’s path. But when a simple accident sends his father to the shrouded under-world, he chooses to abandon the life he knows to attempt a daring rescue. Just getting to the ground below is life threatening enough. The monstrous races who live there could be even more so. He must look deep within himself to find the courage to save the only family he has ever known.
