Publisher's summary

The story tells of a magical and adventurous quest undertaken by two friends below the earth, through portals to new Realms, meeting allies in the form of creatures to help outwit the evil foes encountered on their journey. This is the first in a series for middle grade children and above.

The pair soon meet two of the Earthlie children and explore their amazing and ingenious treehouse homes; learning about their extraordinary lives. Quinn is nine years old; he is strong, brave and has magical skills. His younger sister Vita is soon to turn eight and anticipates the accompanying Scholar ceremony on that same date. Like all Earthlie children at age eight their true Scholar nature is revealed and they join one of the schools to help develop their skills and attributes.

When Maggie and James are invited to return, they hear of a calamitous occurrence. Vita and her best friend, Archer, have been caught by The Snatcher. They are taken through a portal to The Realm of The Grimms; an evil band of ogres. The Grimms are huge and are revoltingly grubby, mean and dull. They treat the youngsters as menial slaves; their only hope is to escape but even then they will have to negotiate the Dark Wilds filled with strange and usual creatures.

Maggie, Quinn, and James set out to rescue the two friends in time to return for the Scholar ceremony. An adventurous rescue ensues which tests their nerves and skills. The three encounter The Wild Bandits and meet some allies en route to Argatron, the capital city of the Realm.

Will they be successful and manage to return home in time for the all-important Scholar ceremony?

A fantastic fantasy adventure!

Maggie wanted magic and adventure in her life and with a tug of a brass ring that opened a trapdoor, she gets her wish. Maggie along with her friend James enter a magical world of portals, Realm of The Grimms and The Snatchers. This fantasy adventure written so cleverly by A. R. Hetherington and brought to life by narrator Karen Ascoe is impressivelly creative and delightfully entertaining! A must have for all audiobook listeners!
