A mysterious forest near the cozy town of Herogate, England is more than what it seems. The gnarled trees appear to breathe, gloomy storms follow you around, and prowling shadows come to life before your very eyes. Referred to as The Dark Wood by the townsfolk, the forest is guarded by a strange old man and creatures not of this world. Even the locals never set foot in the bewitched woodlands, and trespassers have a way of turning up dead.
When Noah Walters moves to town with his parents, his father—a contractor working on a top-secret project for a private security firm—makes Noah promise to never enter those woods; but he doesn’t know that Fate has other plans.
Noah and his new best friends, Ethan and Skye, are chased into The Dark Wood by Grucker, a schoolyard bully, and their lives are changed forever. They are forced into the heart of the forest, where they discover a lost fairy who needs their help to find her way back home before it’s too late.
Join Noah and his friends on a magical adventure as they race against time and plunge headfirst into the unknown. They are challenged with secrets to keep, a dangerous mission to accomplish, and a test of courage that will bring them face-to-face with magical creatures they thought only existed in fairy tales.
This is more than a tale of discovery, mystery, and excitement; it’s an epic adventure that will usher you into a world where magic is in the air, in the trees, and in every heart.

Gnomes are funny little creatures with strange habits that can be difficult for us human-folk to understand. Trust me, I should know. When one of my garden statues started talking to me, I thought I was going crazy. But as I listened, I realized I was destined to be swept into an adventure I wouldn’t soon forget.
Join me and my gnomian friend, Ol’ Grum, in this short tale of what it’s like to be a gnome for a day.

Series Glimpse
Long ago, three realms existed in harmony. The realms were called: Merlydon, where magical beings such as faeries and elves lived; Suntamor, the human realm; and Haventhrone, where angel-like beings called Bellwethers resided. A few gifted humans, known as Betwixters, were responsible for traveling between the realms to make sure everything ran according to plan. But one day a catastrophe split the realms apart and brought evil into the world, dividing each realm so they were no longer able to communicate with each other or work in harmony together. Thousands of years later, the balance of the world is reaching a tipping point and Good Mother cries out for help. An unsuspecting faerie answers the cry, quite by accident, and tumbles through a mysterious portal into the human realm. The faerie had no clue that humans had really existed and thought of them as legend and folklore. When she is discovered by three gifted twelve-year-olds, they are all swept into a magical journey that will change not only their lives but the world, forever.
