The Awakening of David Rose

By: Daryl Rothman

Narrated by: Brian Rollins

Immortality isn’t just about living forever; sometimes, it’s about forever refusing to let things die.

For his 15th birthday, David Rose wishes for things to go back to the way they were. He wants the nightmares to end, the bullies to leave, and the claustrophobic memories of his near drowning to disappear. Not to mention his surreal encounter with a mythical creature.

He stands with his little sister Rachel in front of their mother’s grave and pledges to seek the truth about what really happened on that terrible evening a year ago, but this quest for truth threatens to unleash a sinister plot centuries in the making.

David must awaken in time—to the incredible truth, to his newfound powers, and to the realization that to protect his family and survive in the world he’s always known, he must come to grips with the dark secrets of a world he never knew existed.

Evolved Publishing presents an extraordinary adventure through time, an epic tale of hesitant heroism, and the timeless battle between good and evil, in the first book in the David Rose series of young adult fantasies.
