The Wagon Riders were a strange race. They were nomads, traveling from place to place in carriages pulled by two giant shire horses. Wagons, varying in colors from a fiery red to a somber purple; they put much care into the wagons, For it was their home. But these were just the wagons, the people who lived in them were even more interesting. They were known as thieves to outsiders, but if you were to ask a wagon rider if they really were thieves, they would neither confirm or deny it. Instead they would just avoid the question altogether. But this story is not about this misunderstood people. Its about the adventure of a boy who, because of his predetermined fate, was more strange than the wagon riders he lived with, and the grievous hardships he suffered.

It's the year 2008, and sixteen-year-old Royce Fontaine is looking forward to a long summer vacation alone with his siblings. If by 'looking forward' you mean 'totally dreading', that is. Their island is abandoned, and abandoned islands tend to be boring. Three months of boredom tend to make siblings fight, if for no other reason than to have something to do. So when things get weird and his father offers up a prospective vacation -- a real one, off the island and without the odious presence of his older brother -- Royce finds himself thrilled at the possibilities. New places, new people who don't know him as the pathetic geek that he is, maybe even a summer fling, provided he manages to find a way to get girls to notice him. It seems as if he can't lose. But then his father asks for his help carrying the load in the household, and he finds himself unexpectedly dealing with some consequences -- not of his own actions, but of his father's. Cast adrift in the multiverse, it falls to Royce to protect his younger sister in a fight for survival with nothing but his wits and a broken compass. Book 2 in a series about a family struggling to come together against powerful forces with a vested interest in keeping them apart.
