Cameron Battle and the Hidden KingdomsAs the true Descendant, I command to open
The door to Chidani; it shall be broken Magic awaits those who seek the queen’s peace And all the suffering you feel will cease Those who open the histories will hear a sound What was lost has finally been found. Cameron Battle grew up reading The Book of Chidani, cherishing stories about the fabled kingdom that cut itself off from the world to save the Igbo people from danger. Passed down over generations, the Book is Cameron’s only connection to his parents who disappeared one fateful night, two years ago. Blurbs and reviews coming soon.
