Thirteen-year-old Joey is in trouble. His mother can hardly feed him, which-because of his small size-is saying a lot. As war moves closer to their little town, his mother's options for more work are a big fat zero. Desperate, she sends him to a place where he won't starve. Soon after arriving, however, Joey learns that he and the hundreds of other children aren't just charity cases. Lapidius is a prestigious military institute that develops specialized skills for combat. But Lapidius is also a mysterious place where Joey learns that the battle for which they are being trained is full of magic, malevolence, and monsters.

A Tale of>Strangers becoming FamilyMonsters destroying everything the Hurt finding Peace the Abandoned given new Hope Betrayals, Swords, Dirt Mounds, those Purposeless Finding it, and for some a Nation is Found. Novum Albion had been the melting pot of the world, where cultures, intellect, ideas, and even freedom defined the young nation. Yet, many no longer had the hope that once defined Novum Albion. Sadly, inspiration and confidence drained from the land. Hope became nothing more than feeble happiness, and happiness turned to selfish desires. Selfish desires turned to greed, and greed turned into numbness to life. Many citizens of Novum Albion were trapped in their own minds, yet they were still filled with pride, though they accomplished nothing.As the young of the land grew ignorant of their identity and their past, the very fiber of the home started to unwind, and uncertainty and ignorance in every aspect of life began to grow. Thus Lapidius, a martial institute for children, found a place among the offspring of the compromised nation. And though it would be hard for some to think a school could be home for its students, it was just that for many. Seller Inventory # CIN1088062849G
