Description

Age range 8 to 12 Behind the walls of the monastery, the monks of Xenos grow enchanted golden apples for the villagers who live in their border world. The golden apples have magical healing powers that keep the villagers from harm. The monks also guard the knowledge that binds Xenos to her sister worlds and that keeps Xenos and its citizens safe. But now the monks have been zombified! What will the people of Xenos do now that they have no protection? The only ones who can save Xenos's monks are Phoenix-a miner girl who loves adventure-and her new friends: a hermit and Wolfie the wolf pup. But Phoenix and her gang do not suspect the culprit who is behind this terrible disaster-a powerful foe who will stop at nothing to keep Phoenix from saving the monks, and her world.
