Felix Sanders, a young boy from England, suffers from a rare heart disease that will leave him dead before long. In an effort to have one last adventure before he dies his family goes on a vacation to Costa Rica. While they are there, they visit the Continental Divide. While there however, Felix is suddenly warped to another world where magic is a reality, and science is only a myth. While there he must save the creatures from destruction by untested medicines, as well as find a cure for his disease. One thing I like about this book is how it starts with realistic people and landforms, but then shoots off into complete fantasy. It shows well how the will to succeed can overpower any obstacle. Even death.
