"This is the story of my unforgettable adventure. How I was challenged to face a dangerous villain called The Evil One in a magical land far below the earth to help save all who live there." - Ellie
Get ready for an enthralling fantasy adventure as you take a trip below the earth to where kings, wizards, and magicians rule, and almost anything can happen!
Teacher and author, Sofia Jarlo's mesmerizing debut children's novel introduces middle grade readers to a mythical and awe-inspiring secret world as they accompany Ellie on the exciting magical adventure of a lifetime. Ellie's adventure begins when she finds a hidden passage in the woods and -- led by a teeny-tiny boy -- travels down a dark, winding staircase, far below the earth, to a strange, fascinating magical realm called the Underworld. There, she meets all the kings of the kingdoms, and a new friend named Mischa who must teach Ellie everything she needs to know about their world to fulfill her promise to help the kings.
Turns out, the Underworld's #1 enemy, The Evil One, has escaped his former prison and now threatens the entire Underworld. The kings believe only Ellie can save them by formulating a special plan.
With her best friend's caring help and guidance, Ellie hopes she'll be able to help. But, when Mischa is caught by the villainous Evil One, Ellie is forced to act alone! She needs to learn to quickly think on her feet and become resourceful, cunning, and creative to save her friend and the entire Underworld -- before it's too late!
