Peter, Jenna, Sam, Jonas, Cristan, and Michael are ordinary teenagers from Sussex, each carrying the weight of loss, fractured families, or hard pasts. When a Duke of Edinburgh hike is derailed by a violent storm, they take refuge in an abandoned tower, only to awaken in Ardonia, a magical realm ruled by fear.
Ardonia has fallen under the control of the dragans: blood-drinking creatures led by the ruthless Norzan. Its King and Queen are imprisoned, and children are imprisoned in brutal blood camps to sustain the dragan tribe. Scattered, hunted, and facing dangers far beyond anything they have known, the six learn they are bound by an ancient prophecy, and may be Ardonia's only hope.
Guided by a mysterious boy named Nikolas and the powerful wizard Neelam, the friends are forced to confront terrifying creatures, impossible choices, and the truth about themselves. As they fight to survive, they begin to change, discovering strange abilities that hint their journey is far from over.
