Caley Cross and the Hadeon Drop - Paperback

by Jeff Rosen (Author)

Caley Cross has always known she's not a "normal" thirteen-year-old (her
ability to create zombie animals was her first clue). Still, she never
expected to be whisked off to a faraway world--Erinath--where she is Crown
Princess and people have "baests" that live inside them, giving them
fantastic, animal-like powers. Which would be cool, except that Caley's
baest turns out to be an ancient monster that can swallow planets.
Despite this, Caley manages to make the first friends of her life, Neive
Olander and Kipley Gorsebrooke. They help her navigate the Erinath
Academy, where students train to compete in the annual--and
deadly--Equidium contest, flying giant, dragonfly-like orocs. But to add
to her usual (bad) luck, an evil "Watcher" known as Olpheist is seeking
her, anxious to retrieve something that will make him immortal.
