Untold treasure and spine-tingling perils await seven teens who stumble through a portal and into the strange and fantastical world of Dara Mhór. Sent on a dangerous mission through bedazzling halls and hazardous lairs, Gulliver and his companions encounter deception at every turn, guided only by the mysterious and unpredictable voice of the keeper of The Gems of Dara Mhór.
Gulliver Wimple feels like a beetle in a chicken coop. Haunted by his name and taunted by his peers, the sophomore bench warmer is a walking target at Hoefield High. Things spiral from miserable to perilous when he is pulled through a portal and meets Dar, a peculiar little girl who leads him on a quest through strange waters and dark passageways swarming with the cruel and sinister Beguilers. The future of everyone Gull cares about is at stake as he must distinguish between the voices of Wisdom and Folly, avoid savage predators, gather Dar’s gems, and learn to wield their amazing powers. This fantasy story of friendship, courage, treachery, and redemption explores vast chambers of treasure (the Book of Proverbs) and delves into the deep crevices of the human heart. The voices that echo in Gull’s head force a decision: Who should he listen to?
