Magic is real, but it turns out the stories were not completely right.
In the Kingdom of Hreyn, Ollo has managed to scrape by with minimal effort in life, unable to find joy in work or love. One day, however, he meets a strange traveler that needs his help. In exchange, the stranger agrees to teach him about the mystic art of binding - the magic of legends. From that moment on, nothing will ever be the same.
"The Bonds of Time" is the first book in the "Everwander Chronicles" by Keith Daniels.
