Description
<p><strong><em>Have you ever awoken from a vivid dream and wondered which side of waking was real?</em></strong></p><p>Burt Higgins' retirement is not going well. His children have grown, and his wife has gone off to earn a late-life degree, leaving him alone in his sprawling suburban home. With too much time on his hands, he broods on the state of the world, obsessively following the worst of cable news and the Internet. Increasingly angry at the state of affairs, he nurtures a fantasy that a dark lord from another realm has foisted these problems on humankind. If only he could transport to that world, he'd confront the demon and use the magic found there to defeat the beast and end despair forever.</p><p>On a particularly bad news day, while housebound in the midst of a snowstorm, he retreats to his study to shut out the world and immerse himself in his books. When, on a whim, he lights a candle purchased in an obscure Prague curiosity shop, a magical guide appears and offers to take him on whatever quest he chooses. When he asks to become a hero in a fantasy realm, he discovers a more complex world than he expected, and battling evil with magic turns out to be far from his greatest challenge.</p><p><strong>EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS</strong> a specualtive fantasy adventure sure not just to entertain you, but to make you consider your life, your dreams, your goals.

Reviews
I have read all six books in this series, and each book gave the characters a new light. I just finished the series, 10 minutes ago, and it was absolutely one of the best series I have read in a very long time. Jeff and Beth have come full circle, and I am sad to see it end. I would love for this series to continue from generation to generation. My husband was in Nam so I was able to relate to the war stories and also learned alot from it. This author is a wonderful writer and I highly recommend all 6 of these books. Sit back relax and enjoy the read from beginning to end... <br /><strong>Nancy Crerar ~ New York</strong>
