Description

Sixth-grader Nate Wright has plenty to keep him busy and hoping for a distraction. Between annoying older siblings, homework in every subject, and socially awkward friends, Nate has his hands full. When a fire drill interrupts his day, Nate sees it as the perfect opportunity to shake things up a bit. Max wants to be a knight! Too bad that dream is about as likely as finding a friendly dragon. But when Max's uncle Budrick is kidnapped by the cruel King Gastley, Max has to act...and fast! Joined by a band of brave adventurers--the Midknights--Max sets out on a thrilling quest: to save Uncle Budrick and restore the realm of Byjovia to its former high spirits!
