young Warrior Billos Is Sucked From His Swords-and-sorcery World Into An Alternate Reality-ours. Tempted By The Evil Marsuvees Black To Hunt For Books Of Powerful Magic, He Accepts And Begins Heartlessly Attacking The Small Town Of Paradise, Co, With His Newly Granted Superpowers. Meanwhile, His Lover, Darsal, And Her Friends Make A Deal With The Monstrous Alucard In Order To Rescue Him, But When They Arrive In Our World, They Find That The Now-cruel Billos Is Convinced That They Should Join Him In His Quest For Power. Complexly Plotted, This Work Seems To Require Knowledge Of The Ya Novel Series It Is Derived From; For New Readers, It Can Be Bit Of A Challenge To Understand Some Of The Story Line. Although This Book Has Some Light Christian Themes, The Overall Tone Is Not Evangelical. It May Be Best For Libraries That Have A Strong Demand For Dekker's Work Or For Christian-themed Works In General; For General Collections, It Is Best As A Supplemental Purchase.-dave Inabnitt, Brooklyn Public Library, Ny
