The last thing thirteen-year-old Brendan Jenkins wanted to do was move from California to middle-of-nowhere Montana, losing his friends in the process. His dad gave him no choice, but he promised Brendan that he would make new friends and find plenty of exciting things to do. His dad failed to mention that some of Brendan's new friends wouldn't be human and that the excitement he would find included the revival of an ancient war that would threaten his life, his family, and the fate of humanity.
But, while exploring his new home, an old mansion that he is certain holds secret passages and long-lost treasure, Brendan discovers the Fey Gate--a magical link to a mirror-universe copy of earth that serves as a prison for faeries and other magical races as well as dangerous and destructive creatures. The Fey Gate had been inactive for centuries, but Brendan stumbles upon the magic that allows him access to the mirrored lands but breaks the link to earth in the process.
So, trapped in the mirrored lands, Brendan must struggle to find another way home. But, in a world populated with monsters and vengeful magical beings, can he even survive?
