My sister Becky is a witch, my older brother Dave lives in a castle, and our exchange student Barry is a trained assassin. I also have an uncle named George who is a werewolf. And my own palms get itchy whenever there’s a full moon, so I guess I have the same genes. It must be the genes. I try to be scientific about these matters, because I’m going to be a scientist one of these days. “Unfortunately, there was a full moon for a while earlier that evening. That’s when the trouble began. . .” An ‘ordinary’ fourteen year-old, James Wiley has lost his scientist father to a parallel world in the darkbands. With the help of Becky, his sister with magic powers, Barry the exchange student and Uncle George, the werewolf, James goes in search of his parent. But he must take care: for if there just happens to be a full moon at the wrong moment, James’s itchy palms might lead him into trouble. . . The Millennium books are novels for older readers from the very best science fiction and fantasy writers. Also published in the series are the following titles: CHESS WITH A DRAGON by David Gerrold THE LEGACY OF LEHR by Katherine Kurtz PROJECT PENDULUM by Robert Silverberg
