The Legend of Fermani

Book excerpt: In his eleven years of life, Joshua has always wanted long-term friendships. Each time he begins to get settled, he and his mother have to pack up and move to yet another new city. Joshua never understood why he and his mother were constantly on the move, but he is about to realize that he and his mom are not just moving for a change of scenery. Joshua soon learns that he and his family are involved in an ancient feud. Joshua's family is a part of the Illume, a group of magical people who have struggled with their rivals, the Vermillion Zeal, for thousands of years. The rivalry began in the mystical land of Fermani and has since spilled over into the earthly realm. To bring the conflict to a close, Joshua and his cousin Martin must discover their own magical powers to unlock the gateway back to Fermani. There they will meet fearsome dragons, evil sorcerers, and supernatural creatures as they learn to rely on each other to realize their destiny. Join Joshua and Martin's travels in a land of adventure, magic, and mystery in The Legend of Fermani—The Gatekeepers.
