Book Cover & Preview Text
When three children; Kallisto, Joseph (Seph), and Paxon, heard of the Yggdrasil Mountains, they couldn't keep away. They knew that these mountains were special. There was one mountain that particularly caught their attention: Mount Morte.
When one stranger escaped from an asylum, he came to the orphanage, bearing stories of a mountain (Mount Morte), filled with horrors and fascinating magical beings: mythical creatures. When Seph and Paxon decided to journey there -and what better way to escape the dreaded orphanage? - they were joined by beautiful Kallisto. She, too, shared their interest for this mountain. These three kids became five after meeting new recruits on the mountain, Zelene and Jason (Jay). This mountain was indeed special; they found out it was inhabited by mythical, intelligent creatures. Although there was a reason why everyone called this mountain Mount Morte, morte meaning death, no one came on this mountain to come back right in the head, or to come back at all...
