Arnold wakes up on a beach at nighttime. He doesn’t know who he is or where he is at. He is greeted by a grumpy security guard that thinks he is lying and promptly deposits him at the police station. There no one believes him and he is left overnight until social worker Clarice comes and takes Arnold to a local boys home until they can find his parents.

At the home he meets a great friend, Dennis, and the other boys and gets enrolled in school. When Arnold disintegrates a bully, his true identity is revealed to the vice-principle, Mr. Jenkins. Arnold learns he is a Seraph, one of seven chosen to protect all of the worlds. But there was a struggle and he accidentally got lost in this world. But now that Arnold knows who he is, he has to find a way back home and to help the other Seraphs keep the rest of the worlds safe from attacks which are imminent.

This is a great story. It caters to the mid grade readers but is great for any age. There is a lot of action and adventure but the concept of the many worlds and the Seeds make a wonderful story. I strongly recommend reading this book, it’s a hidden gem for mid grade readers.

I received this book for free from the Library Thing Early Reader Program for free in exchange for an honest review.… (meer)

I was given this book in exchange for an honest review. I’m always a little leery of reading middle grade books for review, simply because sometimes I think that I could be a litle too harsh on the author. This was a great book though, and it was a great introduction to science fiction for middle graders. It had some really good fantasy parts to it, a little science fiction mixed in there, great writing. There were a few typos in there, but not enough to bug me.

If you’ve got a middle grader that you want to introduce to science fiction and fantasy without being too overwhelming, this book is a great start!… (meer)
