The Tale of Pale Dale Hayle (Hardback or Cased Book)

Dale Hayle is an ordinary man living in Australia who is suffering from extraordinary dreams that awaken him every night. But on the day Dale should have been celebrating his fortieth birthday, his frightening dreams suddenly become real.

Merlingitis is a forty-year-old magician and a direct descendant of Merlin. Born on the Island of Magic, his spirit is sent to Earth to fight an increasing threat-the universe is slowly being swallowed by an evil force trapped inside the atmosphere. As the first magician to ever leave his island, Merlingitis cannot let the Council of Elders down. He must fight this evil force and he needs Dale's body to be successful. Dale is soon unwillingly transformed into someone he doesn't know and as he listens to the pleas for help in his mind, he has no idea how to meet the challenges that face him.

The world is in great danger and the possible outcomes can mean death to all life on the planet. The weight of the world rests squarely on Dale's shoulders and only he has the power to stop an evil force with just one goal-to unleash its deadly power upon the universe.
