Billy Marajudino has been dreaming of a world he's never seen.
Symbols he can't read. Places he's never walked. They follow him from city to city, base to base — every time the military moves his family, the dreams move with him. When he arrives in the small town of Roland, Michigan, they explode.
Then he sees a girl wearing the symbols from his dreams stitched into her shirt.
Sara O'Connor isn't thinking about destiny. She's thinking about survival — holding her family together after her father vanished chasing relics that weren't supposed to exist. The symbols she wears are the only piece of him she has left.
She and Billy have never met. But the moment a twelve-sided artifact activates in their hands, it tears open a doorway to Veraunauth — homeworld of the Moogalytes, a luminous race losing a brutal war against the Daulpers, ravenous insect-like predators devouring everything in their path.
An ancient prophecy names them: the Dreamer and the Marked One. Two kids pulled into a war across two planets, searching for a missing father, hunted by creatures that consume worlds — carrying an artifact whose secrets may be older than both civilizations.
They were chosen. They just don't know what for.
The Staircase Shaped Door is Book One of the Staircase Shaped Door series.
