Publisher's Synopsis
The Pierce brothers, Lucy and Jackellel bid their wolf manimal friends farewell and link arms at the entrance to the Portal to return to the land they call home. They leap forward and are swiftly carried through the Portal until a sudden shift in the current sends them off track and spews them into a strange, timeless land. A land with prodigious eyeball trees that swing in all directions preventing passage beyond their landing point. Suddenly, a man appears out of the woods, clubs the tree and it bows before him. The travelers discover an amazing secret about this man named Jake. They agree to join forces with him and his followers to defeat the odious and powerful Lomeanie, leader of a band of rogue criminals who are intent on exterminating them as well as controling the portal. Before their electrifying exploit ends, they encounter a helpful spider, Araknia, a fearsome creature known as The Dark One, and a new friend, Will, who wishes to return to their land with them. Lacking success in past attempts to reach home, will it be possible for them to prevail at last, or will they once again be thwarted?
