description: Whats your name?Serene.Serena? Elliot asked.Serene said Serene. My full name is Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle.Elliots mouth fell open. That is badass.The Borderlands arent like anywhere else. Dont try to smuggle a phone or any other piece of technology over the wall that marks the Borderunless you enjoy a fireworks display in your backpack. (Ballpoint pens are okay.) There are elves harpies andbest of all as far as Elliot is concernedmermaids.Elliot? Whos Elliot? Elliot is thirteen years old. Hes smart and just a tiny bit obnoxious. Sometimes more than a tiny bit. When his class goes on a field trip and he can see a wall that no one else can see he is given the chance to go to school in the Borderlands.It turns out that on the other side of the wall classes involve a lot more weaponry and fitness training and fewer mermaids than he expected. On the other hand theres Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle an elven warrior who is more beautiful than anyone Elliot has ever seen and then theres her human friend Luke: sunny blond and annoyingly likeable. There are lots of interesting books. Theres even the chance Elliot might be able to change the world.
