    Ray Cross wasn't a hero; he could die too easily. But some things are worth risking death... Ray Cross was born with a genetic disorder, resulting in a fragile body; his organs and blood vessels will rupture with any hard impact, so standing up to his best friend's controlling boyfriend could kill him. Ray's life in Midland, MI gets decimated when his parents reveal they are not his real parents and his real father, a king from a secret land hidden in the far north of Canada, is dying and wishes to meet his son. With his doctor and newly-met twin, Ray travels to the forgotten village of Yardis, where magic, myth, and corruption are abundant. But the longer Ray stays in the village learning the truth of his past and reconnecting with his father, King Vintras, the more he discovers an evil force threatening the king and his village. But there's more than the king and a village tied to Yardis and Ray. He finds friendship and more from a band of brothers who are part witch, dragon, and healer. With new alliances and new abilities, Ray wars with himself on playing it safe or risking it all to save the ones he loves. Can Ray rise above his fragile disorder to become the hero for once in his life? Cross has won a Literary Classics Award.

    Genetic disorders are diseases caused by abnormalities in an individual's DNA. These abnormalities can be inherited from one or both parents, or they can occur de novo (new mutations) during the individual's life. Genetic disorders can be classified into several categories: single-gene disorders, multifactorial inheritance disorders, chromosomal disorders, and mitochondrial disorders. https://www.genetictesting.co.in/genetic-disorders/

    From the tender age of three, my life took an unexpected turn as I was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder. Suddenly, my existence straddled the realms of both normalcy and disability. Prior to that diagnosis, I was treated just like any other child, enjoying the same experiences and opportunities as my peers. But it was at that pivotal age of three when my core memory solidified, forever etching the haunting events that unfolded on a fateful day at the playground. That traumatic incident planted seeds of fear that continue to grip me to this very day. The wailing sirens of an ambulance now evoke more dread within me than the fiercest thunderstorm. My life was forever altered, forever defined by that moment. Throughout the years, the desire to write about my life, to share my story with the world, has burned within me. I carry a profound understanding of the isolation that accompanies this journey. It is my earnest wish that this book, borne from my experiences, finds its way to someone out there, someone who feels the weight of incomprehension bearing down upon them. May my words serve as a beacon of solace and understanding in their lives, reminding them that they are not alone.
