Synopsis

Having helped save the world from an interdimensional battle, sixteen-year-old Baxter Zevcenko gets little thanks. Instead he is sent to Hexpoort, a magical school that is part reformatory and part military academy for young agents. He struggles with magic and with a new ability to walk in dreams, and the school's Chosen One, a bully, makes him a target. When the school is attacked, Baxter joins Ronin to stop another apocalypse.
