Finally, the wait is over!
Treachery is the
national sport of the Aiforian lords and allied off-worlders. They’re all
seeking dominance of the planet by any means necessary. But one very angry
13-year-old boy stands in their way – the son of Fragger Sparks.
Patrick has surpassed
his father’s ability to travel the multiverse, and the lords of Aifor are not
happy about it. As with Fragger, they want the secret of his talents. If they
can’t have it, then they want Patrick dead. Time and time again, they’ve sent
assassins to accomplish that objective – and failed repeatedly.
Now, a very deadly new
assassin is on his trail – the creation of one his father’s oldest enemies –
and she’s got abilities to rival those of Patrick. She’s beautiful and
implacable in her hatred of him. On top of this, Patrick suspects betrayal from
an unlikely source. It’s a toxic stew for a teenager to find himself in.
Join Patrick as he
fights for his family, his friends, and his allies. Like Fragger, he leads the
way but into worlds his Ranger father – or his enemies – never dreamed of!
