Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Life is not easy for twelve-year-old Erec Rex. His single mother can barely support her six adopted kids. And they've moved into an apartment so tiny that Erec sleeps with the washing machine. Worse, there is a strange force within Erec that is making him do odd things. His urge to obey these thoughts grows — until it becomes impossible to resist them.

Then one morning, Erec's mother is missing. The force inside Erec commands him to find her, leading him on an adventure that will change him forever. When he arrives in Alypium, a hidden world where old knowledge of magic is kept, Erec learns that his mother and the entire kingdom are in peril. And he might be the only one who can save them.

Synopsis:

In this paperback version of the fantastic first book in the EREC REX series, discover Alypium, a hidden world within our own where our old knowledge of magic is kept, and strange and fantastical creatures abound. It is a beautiful and mystical place, but things are caving in. The king is hypnotized and his castle turned on its side. The very Substance that holds our planet together has gone awry, and whispers tell of evil plans to destroy everything. Twelve year old Erec Rex has been yanked out of our world and thrown unwillingly into danger here. As he learns how to get by in this strange place, he discovers some truths about himself, and must learn the power of trust and love in order to save his mother, and all of Alypium. In this riveting tale packed with action, humor, and a colorful cast of characters, debut author Kaza Kingsley brings us into a land of danger and excitement. For Erec, it is a world that is eerily familiar and inevitably entwined with his future.
