The Eldoria Chronicles, Book One: Caedric and the Forgotten Realm
Thirteen-year-old Caedric can't leave a mystery alone - not a locked drawer, not a "keep out" sign, and definitely not the strange stone hidden beneath the roots of the old oak tree everyone in town is quietly afraid of.
One touch, and the world tears open.
Caedric wakes up in Eldoria, a realm where every legend is real - dragons, griffins, mermaids, unicorns - but none of them quite the way the old stories told it. The only way home is to find five lost relics scattered across a realm that's waking up hungry. An ancient force called the Hollow King is stirring, and everything he touches goes quiet, and empty, and cold.
With a grumbling goblin inventor, a moon fox who can vanish into moonlight, and a tiny spark-breathing dragon obsessed with shiny things, Caedric sets off across mountains, seas, and forgotten kingdoms to find the relics before the door home closes forever.
But the portal didn't choose him by accident. And the closer Caedric gets to the Hollow King, the more he realizes that saving Eldoria might mean something far harder than winning a fight.
A page-turning adventure about courage, kindness, and the surprising power of asking instead of taking - perfect for readers who love Percy Jackson, The Chronicles of Narnia, and stories where the smallest, most curious kid turns out to be exactly the hero the world needed.
The adventure begins here. It won't end here either.
