The House of Power (Atherton #1)

Author(s): Patrick Carman

Fantasy

Edgar, a gifted climber, is a lonely boy scaling the perilous cliffs that separate the three realms of Atherton: a humble fig grove, a mysterious highland world of untold beauty and sinister secrets, and a vast wasteland where he must confront an unspeakable danger that could destroy the people of Atherton. When Edgar discovers a book which contains the history of Atherton's origins and ultimate apocalypse, his world - quite literally - begins to turn inside out. A gripping adventure fantasy.
