Fire Light (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780989810944)

A seventeen-year-old boy blows up a monster with a magic missile. (If you aren't sold already, read on.)

Jake is a jeek-part jock, part geek-who finds out he's an unwitting target of genocide against a secret society known as the Druids-a society he didn't even know he belonged to.

O'Brien, one of the last druids, is his mentor. Unfortunately, he is a dud when it comes to magic, but at least he is ex-military.

As for picking his girlfriend . . . well, that's a split decision. Alexis and Kendra are opposites in almost every way.

Now, if he can just survive the nightwalker-an obsidian-skinned creature with a thirst for blood and a banshee's mind-destroying scream, who wears a cloak black enough to make the grim reaper jealous-then he might have a chance.

Ultimately, protecting his loved ones, and himself if possible, becomes his priority.
