About the Book

Something is calling Alphonso back to Dormia! Ever since he returned from Dormia, Alfonso Perplexon has enjoyed sleeping like a normal person. No dropping off to sleep in the middle of school. No waking up at the top of a tree. In fact, no sleepwalking at all. But on a class trip to France, his sleeping self takes over and he finds himself doing things his wakeful self would never do--like stowing away on a ship headed for Egypt.Something is calling him back to Dormia. With only a backpack, some books, and a feeling of dread, Alfonso sets off once again.

Review :
"In the fine tradition of Tolkien and George Lucas, the authors spin a hero tale in the midst of a mysterious land where characters make difficult decisions motivated by myriad causes. . .This second cliff-hanger tale of Dormia will delight fans of the first book and leave them chomping at the bit for the next installment."--VOYA "The mystery of a sleep-walking hero and his missing father, World's End will keep you wide awake, turning pages late into the night. Jake Halpern and Peter Kujawinski have fashioned a globe-trotting adventure filled with the kind of masterful plot twists and nail-biting suspense that young fantasy readers dream of."--Katherine Marsh, author of the Edgar-award winning The Night Tourist "Readers, teachers, and parents, get on board! Jake Halpern and Peter Kujawinski take their characters on another wild ride in the second installment of the Dormia series entitled World's End.

For readers of the Dormia series, this return visit with old friends is a welcome reunion to be cherished and celebrated with the addition of more eccentric characters that will make you laugh out loud!
