Set in a fantasy kingdom where no one, not even the reader, starts out knowing algebra, this math adventure novel turns algebra into a quest instead of a chore. As a mysterious Gremlin threatens the kingdom, the characters must learn to think algebraically, chapter by chapter, to defeat it and save their world. Each chapter presents a new challenge where algebra becomes the tool for survival, not a rule to memorize, algebra without the pain of a traditional textbook.
