The Hollow Earth Trilogy
Long ago, the Order of Era Mina bound all the beasts of myth and legend into the pages of a single tome. They called the prison they had created the Hollow Earth – a nightmare world built to keep our world safe. Over centuries, their Order grew strong: the men and women with the power to bind and animate the magic of this world learned to live in secret among us, watched over by their constant companions, the Guardians. Each Animarus was tasked with the protection of this world. Each Guardian was tasked with the protection of an Animarus. And in time the history of the Order was forgotten, their relics lost, and the Hollow Earth became nothing but a story.
Until one day, not very long ago, when a Guardian forsook his ancient duty and dared to imagine that the Hollow Earth might be real, and what power it might contain. But in his attempt to unlock the legend, Calder lost his own way, and his Animarus was forced to bind him into the Hollow Earth to prevent him from unleashing a tide of magical devastation on the world we know.
Now, twelve-year-old twins Matt and Emily Calder are about to discover this world for themselves…
