Over 2,000 years ago the Xandians were forced to flee their world by a horde made up of dark forces that had spread throughout the universes like a plague. The Xandian king and a handful of nobles stood alone on the wall against wave after wave of the horde forces as the last remnants of the Xandian people fled through a portal to the planet of earth. They've been fighting and protecting this planet from being overrun by evil ever since. The horde continues to grow stronger as the Xandians have gradually had their forces diminished. When their queen is killed their last hope switches to the potential powers of an eleven year old boy whom no one has told may be the greatest magical force of all time. The day comes quickly for him to embrace his birth right and fight to save not only his own people but all of the people of earth and ultimately of the universe itself.

A series of books built around a world where a magical race came to live among us around 2,000 years ago.

Now they must let their secrets be known as they rush to solidify alliances with the governments of the earth to protect against the horde. Their young king has only just learned of his birthright and now he finds it his responsibility to not just safeguard the entire planet but take back other dimensions from this powerful evil as well.
