A Normal Child

When class bullies Marley and Billy force friends Garrett and Bryce to sneak out one summer
night, they make an unexpected discovery that will change their lives forever!
After being pulled into another world where a maniac king has seized power and turned
the creatures there into a mind-controlled army, the boys learn of a prophecy foretelling of
a royal heir who will lead a great battle to free the creatures of the king’s tyrannical
dark magic.
But, who is the heir?
With the help of a veteran centaur and a warrior-medic faun the boys face unexpected
dangers threatening their quest at every turn!
Can the boys overcome their differences and work as a team in time to defeat the corrupt king?
Will they save this mystical world from complete obliteration, or battle their way toward certain death?
And will they ever make it home?
