Publisher's Synopsis
There stands an oak tree, hidden in Chicago, which connects our world to another: Phaeton. A broken world, shattered by an ancient war. An uncharted wilderness brimming with mythic monsters, quick-drawing gunslingers, shining knights, and brutal villains. A world held together by a magical substance called Ether, which grants any number of powers to those who can harness it. When Lucas Knight's brother is killed by the Grim Reaper himself, Lucas and his best friend Kyle track the evil spirit to Phaeton. They are soon swept up in the adventure of a lifetime as they encounter legendary beasts, never-ending caverns, and an iron-masked ruler bent on destroying the human race. Does Lucas have what it takes to solve his brother's murder and save mankind before it's too late?
