Seventeen year old Jack Gordon thinks he's going mad, just like his mother who believed in mythical beings like elves, dragons and monsters. He's even started hearing voices. But then he and his little sister Harriett are attacked by a monster that is definitely real. Jack and Harriett find themselves magically transported to the hidden realm of Anwynn. In Anwynn, Jack learns that elves, dragons and Druids are very real and that he is a Waycaller: he has the power to part the veil between the hidden realm of Anwynn and the human realm. Jack faces the challenges that come with being in an unfamiliar world that is as dangerous as it is magical. To survive, he must overcome his doubts and fears and learn to accept and use the power that resides within him. That might be a little easier if he weren't also struggling with his feelings for the mysterious Anarra, a part-elvish girl whose beauty is matched only by her skill with a sword. Waycaller is Book 1 of The Faeden Chronicles. For lots of extra, free material about Waycaller (including a map of the magical realm of Anwynn) go to: www.waycaller.com

About the Author Family legends inspired D.J. McPhee to write Waycaller. The McPhee clan hail from the small island of Colonsay, off the west coast of Scotland. The name McPhee translates as "children of faeries". For centuries the McPhee clan has been associated with the legends of Celtic mythology and with magic. The clan symbol is an open hand - the sign of both peace and magic-making. In ancient times it was said that the eldest born of the clan was destined to be either a warrior or a wizard, either a shield-maiden or a priestess. D.J. McPhee believes these family legends to be historical fact, which is why, perhaps, he is not altogether comfortable in the modern world.
