The Elemental Prophesy

In the early hours, just after midnight, a power cut strikes and in an abandoned street, a broken clock starts ticking.

James Fynch doesn't believe in magic. He is an ordinary boy, immersed in the world of modern technology—until his 14th birthday, when something extraordinary happens. Turning the dials of an ancient clock, he finds himself mysteriously transported to a magical, parallel world. Here, he begins to learn of the firestone, one of four mythical crystals able to defeat the rising darkness. The barrier between worlds hasn't been broken for centuries, but with dark powers rising, it is more fragile than ever before. Confronted with darkness, danger, and death, James must begin a perilous quest to find the firestone....
