Every human being is often faced with what appears to be impossible odds. What defines one's character and often determines one's fate are the decisions made when approaching a solution. The simplest resolution is to admit defeat then turn and walk away. Those who succeed in life are the ones who never give up, they're doggedly determined and eventually find some way around, through or over the obstacles in their path. We follow Merlyn through time and multiple dimensions as he is forced to travel to the present where he meets a modern lad named Lance, and they soon realize they have become reluctant companions on an amazing, enlightening journey; but in every shadow evil seems to be lurking. Merlyn and Lance discover frightening ancient secrets which threatens mankind's very fragile existence. Along the way, Lance is introduced to Merlyn's world, chillingly similar to his modern world, yet disturbingly different because things aren't always what they appear to be. Merlyn's world is inhabited by a menagerie of interesting critters and creatures, all of which have their own unique personalities and voices to express their wide-ranging points of view. This action packed adventure launches the reader into a journey of unexpected twists and turns where Merlyn and Lance are constantly faced with impossible odds, and where each decision they make leads them closer to the ultimate conflict where the survival of the mortal's universe is at stake.
