Since his sister Angela was born, fourteen-year-old Zack has protected her from their abusive father. Now the two are thrown into Lavondel, a world where machines do not work and magic does. In this world his sister has mysterious powers. However, those powers could come at the loss of her soul.
In a world where every hand has turned against him, Zack must find the key to saving his sister, and Lavondel, from an evil that has reigned for a thousand years. How can one boy, alone, pursued by an enraged father, betrayed by a loving mother, and separated from the sister he has sworn to protect, hope to overcome impossible odds to rescue a world? What is the puzzle that has kept Lavondel enslaved to the whims of a cruel and self-centered queen? Who is the hidden mastermind that seeks to gain the ultimate power that could plunge Lavondel into an everlasting rule of evil? Can one lonely, inexperienced boy make a difference?
