The Kingdom of Lost Dreams

He thought he was falling asleep. Instead, he awakened in another world. Alex has always escaped reality through dreams, fantasy stories, video games, and imaginary worlds where heroes have a purpose and destiny actually means something. But one night, after falling asleep during class, Alex awakens beneath an impossible sky in a world that should not exist. A burning city lies in the distance. Ancient bells ring from nowhere.
A mysterious voice tells him that he has arrived. Then Alex discovers a powerful crystal hidden among the ruins of an ancient kingdom. When he touches it, visions of fallen kingdoms, forgotten gods, shattered crowns, and wars beneath a blood-red sky flood his mind. The crystal chooses him-and mysteriously merges with his body. Now Alex is trapped in a world built upon the power of dreams, where forgotten gods once shaped reality and corrupted kingdoms fought for control.
Guided by the mysterious mage Lyra and confronted by a fallen prince carrying the symbol of a broken crown, Alex must discover why he was summoned and what role he is destined to play. But the crystal inside him may hold the key to the kingdom's salvation-or the power that destroyed it. Alex never wanted to be a hero. But in the Kingdom of Lost Dreams, destiny has already chosen him.
