The Kingdom of Gaia

By Graham Philip Richard Powell

When Tom Charter visits Uncle Simeon, he meets Great Uncle Ignatius, and Ignatius's adopted daughter, Philomena. Tom and Philomena discover a magical connection: both have just started seeing people's auras. After a fateful accident involving Philomena, Tom gets invited to Ignatius's home, a Northumbrian castle, and the mysterious Gaia School that it secretly houses. There, Tom learns that the castle network monitors climate changes, all now compromised by villainous forces. Led by antagonist Antonio Schirru, this 'dark side' triggers alarms. Tom and Philomena tail Schirru across the wild Northumbrian countryside, seeking answers. The chase goes deep underground, where a cryptic tunnel revelation suggests an insider's betrayal. Back home, after agreeing to join the Gaia School, Tom receives formal acceptance. While in London picking up his school uniform, Tom's family takes a short vacation. But dark clouds are gathering, and Tom must soon join his friends to meet soaring challenges unlike anything imaginable. As Tom steps firmly onto his destined path, he will be asked to rise to unforetold heights, and in the process, discover hidden depths within himself.
