The Heir to the Throne: The Children of the Core (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781481779340)

Nothing exciting has ever happened to Edmund Roth. But that changes one day when he falls down a hole in his basement and finds himself in the middle of a civilization he never knew existed, with floating balls of energy and a dictatorial government that hates people from above-especially Edmund. But why?
When a newfound friend tells him something he never knew about himself, Edmund embarks on a journey across a vast wasteland to find out who he really is. He makes friends along the way, but that doesn't make the journey-both mental and physical-any easier.
Complete with a McDonald's, tayzers, and orbs, this is a journey of a boy discovering his own destiny.
