Ocellus: The Story of the Twelfth Stone, is the first book in the
Ocellus Series, an epic fantasy-adventure for middle-grade to young
adult. Shy, grieving, 11-year-old Joshua discovers a glassy-black,
oval stone in a rock pool. Engraved on one face is a human eye, and
Joshua senses the eye staring at him, so he decides to keep it.
Later, he discovers there is much more to the mysterious artefact
than meets the eye. Soon after, an alien confronts him, saying he
has searched for the eye-stone (Ocellus) for trillions of years. He
reveals that Ocellus, together with twelve other similar stones, is
the source of all energy, matter and life, but trillions of years
ago, evil creatures stole the thirteen stones and hid them across
all the universes. Joshua naturally finds the alien's story too
fantastic, so to prove his story, and promising no harm will come
to him, the alien takes Joshua and his step-sister, Alessa, along
with the stone, to his own universe where he becomes close friends
with another alien his age. Together, they undertake a series of
ever-more hazardous missions to help retrieve the missing stones.
After one mission goes awry, the evil creatures attack and Joshua
finds himself trapped in the other universe, where he discovers
some information about Ocellus that calls into question everything
the alien has told him. Can Joshua establish the truth about the
thirteen stones? Can he help defeat the evil creatures, and bring
peace to the universes? And can he ever find his way back to Earth?
Immense in scope and deep in emotion, the story of Ocellus will
live in the memory.
