"Colin stared into the eye and the eye seemed to stare back, transfixing him, so that all he could see was the rippling pupil of gold, until it seemed to be growing or drawing closer, reaching out to touch him with its warmth, filling him with purpose. Colin took several steps forward, each step taking him improbably nearer to the eye, so that soon it was so close he might have been seeing it inside his mind. Then there was blackness. The eye had shut."Let’s face it, Colin Spriggs is a loser! The girls laugh at him, the other boys bully him, and his home-life isn’t exactly an escape. It’s perfectly understandable, then, that Colin would wander around after school, lost in a haze of self-pity, until the sun goes down.What’s not at all understandable is why the sun would turn into a giant burning eye that gazes down at Colin so intently that he’s sucked into another world – a world that desperately needs his help. Unfortunately, he’s still a bit of a loser. Praise be to The Great Power, then, that he has a diminutive magical mentor to guide him, and a feisty warrior-witch to keep him safe. Let the adventure begin!
