Vermonia
On a distant Blue Star, Mel, Jim, Naomi, and Doug--friends obsessed with their garage band--don't seem that different from any of the other twelve-year-old skateboarders at Union Middle School. But everything changes when Mel is kidnapped and imprisoned in a world called the Turtle Realm. As her friends rush to save her, guided by the magical squelp Satorin, they find a world terrorized by a conquering army, and a land whose villagers' only hope is an ancient prophecy foretelling the arrival of four heroes. Will they be brave enough to release their true warrior spirits--and return the rightful queen to her throne?
