Jake is the firstborn in his family, and he is about to undertake the challenge of a lifetime. Along with fifty other 'first-born' students, he must take Feldspar Academy's mysterious exit exam. 

He will have to design a new world; full of wonder and promise, where the only limit will be his imagination. 

The pressure is crippling; he alone holds power over where his family and friends will live out the rest of their lives. If he fails, then everyone who he has ever loved will be doomed to try and survive his creation, whether it is finished or not.

Please be advised that this is a fast-paced novel, with a plot that spans many realms.

Etching runic symbols in Tristren's sands wouldn't work either; the wind was still so strong here that any attempt was being swept away before it had time to activate. And that would be the case even if I wasn't pinned under a magic dampening umbrella or facing off against an artillery barrage that was determined to hold me where I stood.

Even my Feldspar tablet was gone, presumably destroyed during my earlier transformation, so that option was no longer a viable one. And I was still mulling it over when I lost my balance and stumbled on a jagged seashell, discovering to my dismay that my barrier had gone.

It shouldn't have been a surprise, but it was. That feeling of vulnerability had me afraid and looking for a way out, much like the capital ship I'd turned into a useless buoyant toy that was still trying to make its way around the island where I stood.
