"It was like he dropped from the sky." Doctor Hannah Sauriol had found the boy with the startling green eyes and slightly pointed ears in the desert. All the boy could remember was his name, Devin. After a stay in the hospital and a battle with Social Services, Hannah brought Devin home to live with her troubled son, Cole, and a fat old cat named Cornelius. The authorities were searching the world trying to find clues to the identity of the mystery boy. Their problem was they were searching the wrong world. These other worlds have started to leak into this one. Six inch tall little warriors with spears, a bald headed sorcerer and a powerful Elven witch disguised as a bag lady were just a few of the strange individual drawn to Devin. All the boy with the green eyes know is that his family, people of the Bow, are in trouble and he must find a way home, find a way to rescue them. This is the first episode of the Devin Green Eyes: Lost Son of the Bow Series.

Can he do it by helping his eccentric activist mother and wrestling father fight the corrupt mayor and his goons?
