The Prophecy

The Bakkian Chronicles, Book 1

By: Jeffrey Poole

Narrated by: Kyle Snyder

After learning they've inherited property from reclusive grandparents he hardly knew, Steve and Sarah Miller decide to take a few days off to investigate their newfound fortune in the quiet Idaho resort town of Coeur d'Alene. The inheritance turns out to be beyond their wildest dreams, a vast mansion with gardens. While exploring, they discover a unique set of carved doors on the top floor of their new home. Disguised as a simple door, a portal is accidentally activated and Steve and Sarah find themselves staring at the sight of a lush forest beyond. It's a tantalizing decision: to check it out or to run. Curiosity getting the better of them, they step through, the portal disappears, and they are on a one-way journey to a land where people have strange powers and where mythical creatures abound.

Too late, they discover that they are confronted by dragons, griffins, and bugs of nightmarish proportions. To get home they decide to enlist the aid of the local king and queen. Oddly, they are expected at the castle, and it is revealed their arrival had been foretold by an ancient prophecy which bestows upon them the status of Royal Bodyguards to the young crown prince.

Now, they are stuck on a foreign world where danger lurks everywhere, and the newly appointed bodyguards must find a way to return home and to keep the young prince safe.

Loved it for a long time

I bought the series a long time ago when it was new to digital. Long before Audible became an option. I was so happy when I saw it was out that I immediately had to purchase and relive all of the stories.

This is what my fantasy would be!

Just imagine being sent to another world. I wish this could happen to me, lol. I read this series long ago and Jeffery had a fan from that point on. I always wanted to be able to listen to his books. I am so happy to find them here. I hope my next hope will come true seeing this series on the big screen. I already read and now listen to the books like I'm watching a movie. one day, one day. I will miss your imagination Jeffery but you left us with a wonderful way of enjoying our time and sharing in your imagination.
