A secret history...A mysterious family legacy...Dark magic of untold power...And three kids who will risk everything to bring a family back together. Brendan, Eleanor, and Cordelia Walker once had everything: two loving parents, a beautiful house in San Francisco, and all the portable electronic devices they could want. But everything changed when Dr. Walker lost his job in the wake of a mysterious incident. Now in dire straits, the family must relocate to an old Victorian house that used to be the home of occult novelist Denver Kristoff-a house that feels simultaneously creepy and too good to be true. By the time the Walkers realize that one of their neighbors has sinister plans for them, theyre banished to a primeval forest way off the grid. Their parents? Gone. Their friends? A world away. And they arent alone. Bloodthirsty medieval warriors patrol the woods around them, supernatural pirates roam the neighboring seas, and a power-hungry queen rules the land. To survive, the siblings will have to be braver than they ever thought possible-and to fight against their darkest impulses. The key may lie in their own connection to a secret Kristoff legacy. But as they unravel that legacy, theyll discover that its not just their family thats in danger . . . its the entire world. From master storytellers Chris Columbus and Ned Vizzini comes this wildly imaginative fantasy about a familys journey to find its way home.
