A mysterious artifact. A family torn apart. A magical destiny waiting to be claimed.

Jack Mac Paidin was five years old when his parents were killed -- and he's spent the years since sleeping in his aunt and uncle's basement, separated from his brother and sister, never knowing why.

Then he touches a golden telescope hidden beneath the streets of Portland, Oregon -- and the world cracks open. Fire erupts in his hands. Visions flood his mind. And suddenly, his aunt and uncle are telling him the truth: Jack comes from a long line of magic workers, and his powers have finally awakened.

But with that truth comes a far darker one. His parents' death was no accident. A shadowy organization called the Dark Cabal destroyed his family once -- and now they're coming for Jack and his siblings. With his grandmother reaching out through the telescope from across time, and his grandfather sending desperate messages from the past, Jack must travel to his ancestral home in Dublin, Ireland, master abilities he barely understands, and stop the Cabal before they silence the Mac Paidins forever.

Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and Artemis Fowl -- a clean, page-turning adventure about magic, time travel, courage, and the unbreakable power of family.

This is Book One of the seven-book Jack Mac Paidin series.
