Summary:
From Duluth, Georgia, fourteen-year-old Jimmy Fincher sets off on a quest that takes him across the country and to other, sometimes terrifying, worlds, armed with a powerful gift and a mission: to prevent the evil Stompers from destroying Earth.
Excerpt/First Sentence(s):
It was the beginning of summer vacatino, and it was a real nice day when it all started.
My mom's azaleas were still all flowery, the dogwoods were blossoming all white and pretty, and the backyard smelled like heaven with all the honeysuckle. Like I said, I know I'm a young little guy, but I appreciate a beautiful day. The air was warm, but not too hot, and the humidity was not quite suffocating us yet. It was, simply, the kind of day in which a fourteen-year-old boy must climb a tree. Birds were chirping, the sun was shinin,' and I had just had tomato soup and peanut butter toast for lunch.
Publisher Book Description:
What begins as a summer-day climb up his favorite tree quickly takes an ugly turn for poor Jimmy Fincher, as he witnesses something that turns his perception of reality upside-down. When the perpetrator of the act notices Jimmy in the tree, the ensuing adventures explode into a torrent of suspense and excitement.
The next month of Fincher's life includes an ancient legend come to life, a conspiracy of madmen decades old, strange portals to other worlds, villains named everything from Raspy to Shadow and behind it all is the old wooden door in the forest by Jimmy''s home. There, something wondrous awaits.
