Hayden Keyes knows everything there is to know about knights and the legends of King Arthur. But that doesn’t mean he has ever jousted on horseback, worn a suit of armor, or flown on the back of a dimension-traveling griffin.

In fact, Hayden’s life is pretty ordinary. Well, perhaps ordinary is up for debate. Hayden never met his real parents, though his foster ones are great. Sure, they have a bit of a hoarding problem and an irrational fear of Halloween costumes, but nobody’s life is perfect, right?

All Hayden wants is to fit in. And to make the seventh-grade basketball team. That would be nice.

But Hayden’s life is about to turn all kinds of crazy. When a pumpkin-headed knight and a pair of hungry trolls posing as eighth graders show up at school, suddenly Hayden finds himself holding a one-way ticket to uncovering the mysteries of his past, facing a monstrously dangerous destiny, and the chance to return to his true birthplace: Between, the home of New Camelot, the Knights of the Round Table, and a world of magic Hayden never dreamed existed.

Join Hayden on his journey to The Magic Hollow in this heartwarming, humorous coming-of-age adventure, which puts a fun new twist on Arthurian legend.
