Produktbeschreibung

Twelve-year-old Sarah escapes her troubles through fantasy books-until she's transported to Greystone Valley, where magic is real but nothing works as expected. With a bumbling wizard, a pessimistic warrior, and a six-inch dragon as companions, she must stop an evil warlord from conquering multiple worlds. As Sarah discovers unexpected magical abilities, she learns that real courage means facing what you fear most, whether it's a villain's army or your own grief.
