'Don’t worry Colin, we will figure it out.' Aedan said as he put his hand on Colin’s shoulder. Aedan was just as scared as his younger brothers but he tried not to show it. Alistair, the middle brother, also placed a comforting hand on Colin’s other shoulder. Their minds struggled to understand what was happening, but there was no logical explanation.This story takes place in a town called Braymar in Dun-Kelton in 2003. Dun-Kelton is a very old country and has a lot of history, which much of it has yet to be discovered. But with the curiosity of three young boys, some of those ancient secrets will be unveiled when they stumble across some very old artifacts in their own back yard. Their lives are radically changed as they embark on an adventure to which they were not ready for. However, being Calgregor’s, they stepped up to the challenges head-on and faced them with courage. And as the events unfold for the boys, their mother and father anxiously await the boys return from playing. It is late, and the boys never stayed out that long. Worried, Kirstin and Bryce set out to find the boys, which leads them on their own adventure as they frantically look for them. The ensuing quest binds the already close-knit family even tighter, as they face extreme dangers that could lead to a life or death outcome. Travel with the family into history and explore a new world that is waiting to be discovered. Will you laugh, will you cry, or will you do a little of both as you get to know this amazing family? They are waiting for you to join them in an epic and timeless tale. This work is a fiction chapter book and can be enjoyed by children and teens ranging from the age of ten and up. Even adults will enjoy this tale and it may even touch their hearts. The book may be fiction, but there are some true elements of history in the book, and I did a lot of research to make sure that the facts were correct and true. My name is Amy and I am originally from Stanton, Michigan and I moved to Hilliard, Ohio in 2001 with my boys, who were the inspiration for the main characters. My boys have since grown up and I am now a very proud grandmother of an 8 month old boy. I started writing this story in 2003, but took my time finishing it because, as most parents know, juggling kids and work can be hard to do. But I finally finished this year and I am proud of what I have accomplished, I set out to write a book and I did it. It is one of the few things I ever followed through on and never gave up the dream of seeing it in print.
