Shadow Boys: Escape From The Mantelrealm

A wicked fairywitch, intent on seizing the throne of Fairydom wages a brutal battle over the name of the true heir ? a secret the fairies kept closely guarded for protection. When the fairies lose and still won?t reveal the name, the witch steals all the boys in the land and enslaves them to work in the scorching mines of the Mantlerealm. She then covers up her treachery with a spell that obliterates the boys and the war from the outside world?s memory. Years later, a girl discovers their mystery and learns that the boys have not gone quietly. Following their not-so-fearless leader Jayce, the Shadow Boys, self-named for their ability to hide inside their own shadows, have adapted to their horrific environment where magic does not work, and because it is too hot to fly, they have used extreme sports as their inspiration to navigate throughout the mines. Training themselves like a Special Forces unit, they have prepared for the day they would attempt to escape all at the same time. Prior attempts had failed and the Shadow Boys, like the oft described military band of brothers, will not leave one man behind. Instead, they have waited anxiously for the girl's prophecized arrival, for it is foretold that she must fight on their side if they are to win against the witch and her dragon army. But now, just when she begins to uncover the truth, the enemy finds her.
