Jason is a young man who will be
graduating out of middle school. He isn't the geek in school nor is he
the popular kid. He loves baseball, but his not-very-supportive parents
want him to go into dentistry. He currently works at the zoo.
One
day while cleaning a hippo's cage, Jason is swallowed up by the hippo
but he isn't in the stomach of the hippo he is in a whole different
world. Lyrian, a world without heros.
For years Lyrian
has been controlled by an evil wizard named Maldor. No one has been able
to defeat Maldor for years. People have tried but no one succeeds.
Supposedly there is a word that can destroy him. But if the word is
spoken it is immediately forgotten by the speaker and all people around
him. So enemies of Maldor devised a plan.
They hide syllables around Lyrian with clues to there location.
Jason
stumbles upon one of the syllables. Then he goes to a blind king who
knows about the syllables. And has been protecting another person from
our world, Jason's world.
Jason and Rachel then go on a search for the remaining syllables.
This
book starts out slow but then progresses into an entrancing tale of
adventure. I love this book. It has made it way to my favorite book
list. I would and will suggest this book to every person I know.
