The Study Train: Volume 1 - Reunion of the Untouchables

by Kurt Frenier

About five hundred years ago, Master Magician Mikhail Pilkington III created a magical flying train, the StudyTrain. His to take average teenagers onboard, show them the world, and turn them into leaders.

Ethan is invited on to this train, escaping his miserable life in Switzerland. He soon discovers that the train is all but ordinary. It is filled with magic, secrets, people with interesting histories, and much more.

Ethan’s intrigue and hunger for knowledge and power catches the attention of a hidden, ancient alliance called the Untouchables. Soon, Ethan learns all their mysteries, powers and sorcery. He stands out from the rest of the students and is recognized as the long-awaited leader for the Untouchables. But his dark side - The Dark Fire Inside - grows and becomes much stronger than anyone thought it would. Ethan gets sucked into a web of conflicts and feuds while battling his own inner feelings.

Will he go for power, or turn toward good?
