Jacob Landis

Jadon is fifteen years old, full of adventure, trouble, and missing memories of his childhood. He doesn't remember anything before he started traveling around the world six years ago on the high tech, trade ship, Taryn. Argo, his guardian, insists he's just blocking out the past after his parents' death. Even so, he's quite sure that's not it. He doesn't even know how they died.

Suddenly, on a day in port, a bright light forms when Jadon evades a man. He can't explain it, but his friend, Abigail, sees it too. This makes him even more determined to look for clues about himself and his past. With the help of his young comrades, he learns he's supposed to be dead, and while the image of red toothed man swarms through his mind, he discovers pirates are scared of him.

Then, someone Jadon thought he would never see again, tells him he made a heart wrenching choice involving magical powers he possesses. Will he ever learn what that choice was? Or what those powers are?
