DescriptionDerry knows no other life than that of a captive on Cram's Rock, shunned by the other young prisoners for being Cram's poison taster. Life is a repetitive and dreary cycle of tasks and obedience until everything changes with the arrival of a mysterious traveller who is on the run from the sinister El executioners. This traveller leaves Derry with a magical notebook full of secrets, secrets that might hold the key to his destiny - and his long-forgotten past.
The notebook plunges Derry into an epic adventure, one filled with enchantment, peril, and extraordinary companions. As Derry unravels the secrets within the notebook, he must confront the dark magic and lies that imprison not only him but an entire kingdom.
