I Received An ARC Of This Book In Exchange For My Honest Review!This is a book unlike any other book I've read before. The uniqueness of this story had me so engrossed that I hated having to put it down to do things around the house.This is an action packed story from beginning to end. Michael Ross with the help of old friends that went by the 'High Five Gang' needs to rescue his wife and their friend Mira form the astral plane. After watching Brandon their 3 year old son start to disappear in front of her and not be able to do anything to stop it she lost it. She and Michael went to the astral plane to find him and bring him back but something goes wrong and Mira regresses to the age of 9. She doesn't remember anything about astral travel or who Michael and her friends are.The astral plane sounds like it would be a great place to live and explore as a children. This doesn't really surprise me considering your feelings and mind conjures up the scenery. As we get further along in the story we learn that even thought the astral plane seems like a lot of fun it can actually be vary dangerous especially to the untrained traveler.I enjoyed the interaction between the 'High Five Gang.' They all seemed to get along pretty well and fall back into old habits easy. Well with the exception of Michael and Stu who isn't a member of the 'High Five Gang' but has traveled with Michael and his friends before. I hope that as the series progresses we get a more in depth look into the characters but in the next book I'd really like to find out more about why Michael and Stu seem to dislike one another at the beginning of the book.I truly can't wait to see where K.D. Rose goes with this series. The Ross Family quickly became a favorite of mine. Especially with all the astral prodigies and capabilities this family seems to have. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking to escape to another place in time for a few hours or to anyone who just loves to read.
