Publisher's Synopsis
Two teenage boys, Matthew and Demas, find themselves suddenly thrust into a world of swords and sorcery, warriors and monsters, and exciting adventures through an unknown land. While playing in the woods one autumn day, they see a boy their age confronted by dark horsemen led by the evil captain Ketophel.
