After a strange dream and an even stranger encounter with an elderly gentleman at his school, Joseph receives an invitation beyond his wildest dreams. The offer? A spot at an all-expenses paid, exclusive gaming event on an island resort for Joseph and his best friend. He barely notices the catch; they must come alone and tell no one. Unable to resist, he decides to take the plunge, but the trip turns out to be much more than he ever expected.


Now Joseph isn't sure what worries him the most; the exploding inventions of a coffee-addicted professor, the old stranger who continues to follow him, or the very real specter of magic awakened by the troubled young man who's stolen the professor's research.


Erift's Journeys is an urban fantasy for ages 12+ with very mild language and fantasy violence. It features action and adventure, magic, and coming of age themes. It follows a young protagonist overcoming incredible odds while meeting new friends during an unexpected trip that leads to a long road of self-discovery.


It's heavily inspired by fantasy video games and anime and is especially meant for middle grade audiences to ease them into slightly more mature work without throwing them headfirst into full adult themes. It's an epic adventure for everyone.
