***Special thanks to ***Special thanks to Pam Mettler of ZonderKidz for sending me a review copy.***

MY REVIEW:
This book is a good new YA book with a really interesting premise. A good fantasy book for a young adult to start off with in this genre. Julie and Peter are a brother and sister that are being called to a different world, to save the oppressed people there. They don't know what to do but Julie proceeds to listen to those that know the history of the world, Aedyn, so she can help them. In the meantime Peter is drawn into the web of deception spun by the 3 evil leaders. Can Julie help the people of Aedyn before Peter gives the leaders knowledge that could destroy them all?
