Fifteen-year-old Gaige Porter is special. He just doesn't know it yet. When a strange girl shows up in his class after he dreamed of her, he doesn’t know what to make of it. He had never met her before. Things only get weirder from there. He is lured into a gateway to another world...

It's been a year since the incident at Gate City Park. As the city picks up the broken pieces, nobody believes fifteen-year-old Gaige Porter's story of what happened there. He doesn't care. All he cares about is getting back to Alisundi to find Aoife...if she's still alive. Just when all seems hopeless, a chance presents itself in the form of the one who betrayed him.

After being betrayed by somebody he called a friend, Gaige Porter finds himself trapped in the clutches of the madman Daresh who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. What does he want? Earth. And Gate City is the perfect place to start. Gaige must find a way to escape imprisonment and fight his way back to his home where a different evil awaits him.
