Charlie Sanders and the curse of the pixies

When he found a weird marble ball under a tree in his village, Charlie had no idea his life was about to change forever.

Now he finds himself in a country called Gareth, attending an academy he never heard of, making friends for the first time in his life, training his own shadow, playing with dragons and battling against noisy pixies.

Not only that but his life has fallen into a plot far advanced than human minds, bringing in new threats at every step.

Will he able to survive this land? Or will he be just another boy gone into the clutches of an un-named warlord, the only true terror of the people of Gareth.
