The enchanted planet Mearth's magic is failing, but an ancient tale prophesizes that five heroes from another world will restore it by retrieving seven mystical talismans. Of course, the ruling families who rely upon those relics for their power will stop at nothing to retain their possessions.Mark Panagopoulos is a 13-year-old boy from Cincinnati who often dreams about fantasy and magic. However, his dreams have begun to meld with the mind of a boy living on Mearth to form the hero Stavius.

Stavius and his friends will have to battle dragons, werewolves, vampires, and human armies to fulfill the prophecy, and time is running out. The five heroes must accomplish their quest before their next birthdays, and their parents insist that they also have to survive the eighth grade.To make matters worse, three of the prophecy heroes left before Mark began dreaming of Stavius and are now missing. Stavius has to find his companions to fulfill the prophecy and to warn them about an unanticipated danger. Mark suspects that if any heroes perish in their Mearth dreams, their slumbering counterparts will die in real life on Earth. The kids' fanciful adventure has suddenly become very real.

Stavius is the first book in The Chronicles of Mearth trilogy. Be sure to read the other two, The Lachians and Prophecy, to follow the entire, epic saga.
