Max fears that his family will disapprove of his friendship with Darla, a common girl from the village outside his uncle’s fortress walls. That’s why they meet secretly to read together from an old book, which she has found in a dusty room near the fortress laundry where she works. The old book turns out to be a portal to other worlds and to faraway places, and everybody wants to steal it from them. The book takes Max and Darla on a series of breathtaking adventures, but real trouble begins when they can’t find their way back home. $1.99 on Kindle.
