Immortality isn't just about
living forever.
Sometimes it's about forever
refusing to let things die for
his. 15th birthday, David.
Rose wishes for things to go
back to the way they were.
He wants the nightmares to end,
the bullies to leave, and the
claustrophobic memories of his
near drowning to disappear, not
to mention his surreal encounter
with a mythical creature.
He stands with his little sister
Rachel in front of their
mother's grave and pledges to
seek the truth about what really
happened on that terrible
evening a year ago.
But this quest for truth
threatens to unleash a sinister
plot centuries in the making.
David must awaken in time to the
incredible truth, to his new
found powers, and to the
realization that to protect his
family and survive in the world
he's always known.
He must.
Come to grips with the dark
secrets of a world he never knew
existed, Evolved Publishing
presents an extraordinary
adventure through time, an epic
tale of hesitant heroism and the
timeless battle between good and
evil in the first book in the
David Rose series of young adult
fantasies, The Awakening of
David Rose, written by Daryl
Rothman and narrated by Brian
Rollins.
