When Martin Fields is nine years old, he and his father bury a special box beneath the old oak tree in their backyard. There is a Latin inscription that reads, Stultum est timere, quod vitare non potes, meaning: It is foolish to fear what you cannot avoid.
Then a tragic car accident leaves his father dead and Martin paralyzed; he realizes it is time to perhaps open the box, but strange events begin to take place when he does so. He finds a key and a note that says “Tantalis”. He and Dominika, his best friend, begin to investigate and are transported, via a portal in the oak tree, to the special world called Tantalis – a land inhabited by trolls, faeries, dragons and the evil Inkwish. There Martin learns the truth about dragon flight – a fact never before revealed – and also discovers that the stories told of such creatures on Earth are more than just legends, but are in fact part of a reality that reaches out to demand the utmost of him….and threaten his life.
