“In the tradition of CS Lewis Narnia Series, The Door Within Trilogy beckons the reader to come along on an epic fantasy adventure it faraway lands and the more near places of the heart.” – Josh D. McDowell, bestselling author and speaker.

This fantasy adventure for pre-teens and teens has a strong Christian thread running throughout its Narnia or Lord of the Rings style epic story. In the basement of his ailing grandfather’s house, Aiden uncovers the scrolls that tell of a world where the knights of Alleble still battle to keep the warriors of Paragory from gaining dominion over the Realm. Reading the last line of the scrolls:

“There are passages and doors
And Realms that lie unseen.
There are Roads both wide and narrow
And no avenue between.
Doors Remain closed for those
Who in sad vanity yet hide.
Yet when Belief is chosen,
The key appears inside.
What is lived now will soon pass,
And what is not will come to Be.
The Door Within must open,
For one to truly see.
Do you see?
Believe and enter.”

With “Believe and Enter”, Aidan is transported into this strange land and his new role: to become the 12th knight of the King's Elder Guard.

In their mission is to travel to the kingdom of Mithegard and convince its sovereign not to sign a treaty with Paragory, Aidan and the knights discovers that the people in the Realm, called Glimpses, have doubles in the modern world he’s left behind.

In the style of JRR Tolkein – though not requiring the more adult reading age of his complex ‘Lord of the Ring’ books, this book includes a map of the Realm, a guide to the key characters and a pronunciation key to the language of the Glimpses.

    My son LOVED this book and has already read it several times. He's now writing his own stories about more adventures the characters go on :) A win win as far as I'm concerned.
