Publisher's Synopsis
Dumped by his father, Caleb Ferguson spent ten years at Fair Meadow Orphanage feeling abandoned and alone. Only his dream-filled nights of fairies, leprechauns, and magical knights give his life any joy, until the day the strange and incredible Professor Thaddeus Myrrdin Slimmerik appears. The Professor and his magical pocket watch turn the orphanage upside-down as he whisks Caleb away to the land the boy once believed existed only in his dreams. Caleb discovers his past and future uniquely entwined with Professor Slimmerik's, while he also learns the truth about his father and the curious birthmark they share. Will Caleb fulfill his destiny or is the mark of the dragonfly a curse that will destroy him?
