TIMOTHY....A VILLAIN?

After fighting for his survival in the treacherous city of Arcanum, Timothy must repay a debt and help his friend Verlis's clan, the Wurm. Though the Wurm are known as bloodthirsty, child-eating dragons, Timothy has agreed to help bring peace to their war-torn world because he knows all too well that appearances can be fatally deceptive, and history can be riddled with lies.

But before Timothy can travel to the Wurm world, ruthless Constable Grimshaw imprisons Verlis deep under the sea. Now Grimshaw is on a manhunt to destroy Timothy and his friends. Timothy has no choice but to do the impossible: outrun Grimshaw and free Verlis. For the fate of the Wurm rests on his shoulders....

This second book in the Magic Zero quartet, originally known as the Outcast series, features an unforgettable adventure.
