Then one stormy evening, he is summoned to a clandestine meeting, and sent on a real-life quest--to free the boy in the woods. His adventure will involve hidden treasure, magicians and a prophecy. He will learn the secret of the Seven Ways. He will find seven allies. And he will make a fearsome enemy. But will he accomplish his mission?"-- Back cover.
