My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What started out as an ordinary summer for Matt Monroe and his friends up in Pennsylvania turned into anything but. Strange lights appear out over the fields and even stranger creatures are only the beginning. Matt finds some treasures from his Great-Grandfather and unknowingly sets in motion a quest to save the world. Matt, along with his friends, gets transported to a magical land where they will have to use their wits, bravery and courage to survive. A fine adventure story with fantastical world-building and a strong good vs. evil theme. This is a book I could see my 13-year-old niece enjoying, she likes a good adventure story. The relationships between the teenagers is also a focus, they have to build upon their friendship and develop stronger bonds of trust if they will ever be able to return home. Very well written, even with the frequent mention of dentistry facts.
