Jason tumbles into a quest to save a magical in this #1 New York Times bestselling start to Brandon Mull’s Beyonders fantasy series.

Jason Walker has often wished his life could be a bit less predictable—until a routine day at the zoo ends with Jason suddenly transporting from the hippo tank to a place unlike anything he's ever seen. In the past, the people of Lyrian welcomed visitors from the Beyond, but attitudes have changed since the wizard emperor Maldor rose to power. The brave resistors who opposed the emperor have been bought off or broken, leaving a realm where fear and suspicion prevail.

In his search for a way home, Jason meets Rachel, who was also mysteriously drawn to Lyrian from our world. With the help of a few scattered rebels, Jason and Rachel become entangled in a quest to piece together the word of power that can destroy the emperor, and learn that their best hope to find a way home will be to save this world without heroes.

I really enjoyed the book it was amazing

I got this book from Des Moines at the book store, so I had something to read so I am not bored. The main character gets sent to another deminsion from a hippo! Yes, he was swallowed by a HIPPO! He meets a musical group from a raft on a waterfall, he meets a blind king, he goes on many other adventures to solve the puzzle so he can return home.

This is totally awesome! If you are especially adventurous and is looking for a good book, you must try this action packed adventure. Brandon Mull is an awesome author, and just reading this makes me want to jump in a hippo tank and get transported to another world!

Jason travels into another world. The people in that world call our world the Beyond. Maldor is the evil ruler. Find out if Jason defeats him!

The book was really good! My mom said I should read it but I wasn't sure if I wanted to. Then when I went to the library I got it.
