Description

Sam Miracles life is made up of dreams that come to him when hes wide awake. They take him to another place and time, where hes a courageous, legendary hero instead of a foster kid with two bad arms that can barely move. Sometimes these dreams feel so real, they seem like forgotten memories. And sometimes they make him believe that his arms might come alive again.

But Sam is about to discover that the world he knows and the world he imagines are separated by one thing: time. And that separation is only an illusion. The laws of time can be bent and shifted by people with special magic that allows them to travel through the past, present, and future. One of these time walkers is out to protect Sam so that he can accept his greatest destiny, and another is out to kill him so that a prophecy will never be fulfilled. However, its an adventurous girl named Glory and two peculiar snakes who show Sam the way through the dark paths of yesterday to help him make sure there will be a tomorrow for every last person on earth.

Author Bio

N. D. Wilson lives and writes in the top of a tall skinny house only one block from where he was born. But his bestselling novels have traveled far and wide, disguising themselves in many strange languages in dozens of distant and mysterious lands. He is the author of nine novels, including the Ashtown Burials series and the 100 Cupboards trilogy, and has tumbled into the world of movies, first directing a short film for legendary Japanese producer, Hisao Kurosawa, and then writing and directing his own feature film. He and his wife have five young storytellers of their own, along with an unreasonable number of pets.
