Teenage twins Lynx and Laurel Raven are on a mission. After
being told by their grandmother that a family heirloom is missing,
the twins head to their uncle's house on the Gulf of Finland for
a two-week stay, hoping to fi nd the valuable stone tablet that
their uncle supposedly snatched from her house. But when their
cousin's eccentric tutor gives Laurel a strange book to read and
their aunt reveals that their ancestors were shamans, their search
takes on a new sense of urgency.
The twins locate the tablet in their uncle's offi ce and manage
to solve an ancient Finnish puzzle--which activates dormant
technology and transports Laurel to Nodyynia, a world at war. As
she struggles to survive, Lynx sets off to fi nd her with the help of
a Guardian shaman who is convinced Lynx is destined to destroy
the Dark Shaman poised to awaken from a lengthy sleep stasis
and seek revenge.
In this spellbinding fantasy, as the Guardians prepare for an
invasion, a portal begins to open; it is up to Lynx to do whatever
it takes to fi nd his sister and stop an evil shaman before he
destroys the universe.
