This is a fantasy novel about a 14 year old boy named Bobby Pendragon, living the usual teenager life--playing sports and video games, thinking about girls, going to school, and playing with his dog. When his Uncle Press stops by the house as Bobby is just about to leave for his basketball game, his life is turned upside-down.
His Uncle asks Bobby to go with him because he needs his help, so Bobby goes. And that is where his adventure begins. He is swept off to another world, where he is expected to help the downtrodden. He finds out that he is a "Traveler", and that is what Travelers do.
An interesting book, along the lines of Harry Potter and Chronicles of Narnia, with the hero learning things about himself, and discovering there is more to him than he had believed.
I enjoyed it, and will read other books in this series if I come across them.
