When the unlikely hero, Colyn, finds a knife with mysterious powers, he opens a door into Klarin—a fascinating otherworld. Here he is attacked by dragons and defended by warriors.
As his adventures into the otherworld continue, Colyn meets his match in Yasni, a girl who helps him in his dangerous quest to stop the dragons from gaining a new power to threaten his world.
In the breathtaking finale, Colyn finds himself struggling against not only the dragons of Klarin but also the dragons of the heart.
