The Last Traveler: Volume 1 - Paperback

by Melissa Day (Author), Melissa E. Day (Author)

When Paxton Graves discovers she can travel between Earth and the war-torn Terra, will she stay in the safety of the life she knows or leave it all behind to find the mother she thought she lost? After her mother's mysterious disappearance when she was six, Paxton Graves spent her life just wishing she could escape it . . . until the day she finally did. She always knew she was a freak; abandoned by her mother, raised by her alcoholic father, and then there were the "episodes"--her vivid, almost too real dreams that would come anytime of the day or night, without warning, followed by her waking to the sound of her own gut-wrenching wails. Then one night at a party, she finds herself immersed into the world from her dreams and face-to-face with a strange boy called Ari who introduces her to the world she thought only existed in her mind.
