The story
The door
will open.
On a planet a thousand years from now, an army stands ready. Thousands of soldiers. Creatures the size of buildings. A warlord who has spent years preparing his invasion across time. Only one thing stands between them and Earth: a door that will not open.
Then, on an ordinary street in a quiet Australian suburb, Jack finds a strange old book.
And the door hears a knock.
It isn’t a book. It’s the door — to distant worlds, cities in the sky, a war of the future. It answers to Jack and his best mate Ben, and nobody will tell them why. The adventure of two lifetimes has just begun.
So has the invasion.
