The Jade Castle

The Golden Compass meets Narnia in this YA fantasy trilogy. This is Book 1.

Bekk cannot seem to stay awake. As a sophomore in high school, it doesn’t bode well for his education, or the social services agent breathing down his older brother—and guardian’s—neck.

But Bekk can’t help it. He’s being plagued by dreams—dreams from his childhood, about a land called Iyah.

If he doesn’t snap out of it soon, he’ll be taken away from the only family he has left. But when the school psychologist insists it’s a childhood reaction to the trauma of his parent’s death, Bekk’s only recourse is to figure out the meaning of his dreams, before it’s too late.
