November 2014 Debut of the Month Discover the first book in a new series which is set on a different world, one where humans link with particular animals in a strong and wonderful bond. Bailey doesn't have his Animas connection, which marks him as spectacularly different to everyone else. The first part of the book does have some similarities to the Harry Potter series, the school setting, the school transportation and the school game in particular; consequently the resemblance does linger in your mind for a time.
Comparisons to Harry Potter however fade into the background when the story really gets going and by the end, this tale very firmly belongs to itself. The risks and hazards build throughout the book to an explosive ending, which is clever as it still leaves you wanting to know more… much, much, more. ~ Liz Robinson
In a world where humans have animal companions, one boy must fulfil his hidden destiny. When Bailey enters the prestigious Fairmount Academy as a freshman, he is the only member of his class who doesn't yet have an Animas. And in a world where the bond between human and animal is the guiding principle to life, this makes him an outsider both at school and in the world at large.
