A Dark Travelling
The transcomp was protected for centuries under the Foundation's
eyes. Thomas Wiley, a scientist, was working at the Foundation when he
disappeared. The Foundation had been locked tight, and there was no
other way to enter it except through the transcomp – and it had been
smashed.
Had Tom Wiley been kidnapped? Had he escaped into
another world? If he had, which world was it? His son Jim must solve
the puzzle. He trusts only his adopted siblings to join him. His sister
claims to be a witch and his brother is a master of the martial arts,
but Jim has no special talents to contribute to their journey. He's
just a werewolf.
