After Evelyn Langley's mysterious abduction, her husband Walden devotes his life to finding her and devising a way to get her back. During those efforts a RIP is opened and Walden's son Ashton and his best friend Tobias Calhoun are transported to an alternate reality-one in which the technology they carry is destined to disrupt the balance between the naturalist Kingdom society and the evil Izan Empire. There is beauty here, as well as dark evil, but reality is only a matter of perception. As Walden battles with the difficulties of enabling their return, the boys will be challenged, tested, and trained, and ultimately not only their own lives, but the fate of two worlds will rest in their hands.
