"
Eleven year old boy, Giovani, feels smothered by three younger
sisters and drowning in their Sea of Pink. Bored with ordinary
life, his only escape is to journey into imaginary adventures,
while longing for real companionship away from all things frilly.
On his twelfth birthday, his eccentric Aunt bestowed upon him a
mysterious gift that she thought he was finally old enough to
handle; it changed his life forever. Immediately he was thrust into
a curious world that has always been there in the shadows,
protecting him, so that one day Giovani might help protect them.
For over one thousand years, his bloodline has been part of an
elite order that has fought against evil, and now, ready or not, it
was his turn. His new reality full of adventures with dragons,
elves, and magic await his arrival. Evil forces threaten his
family's existence and have already killed others. The Order needs
his help. It is his birthright; his duty. How will he handle his
new found responsibility and quest? Will he rise to the challenge
or sink back into the Ordinary?
