Now, they must race against the shadows to retrieve the most powerful book in the universe. Through their adventures, they learn of a mechanical map that has been constructed and then separated into pieces. This is the map that, once completed, will guide them to the Master Guidebook. They been instructed to find the pieces by following the 12 Guardian Gateways, marked and protected by a dozen, unique astronomical clocks. Time is running out; evil is growing and the world as we know it may be rapidly winding down to a terrible, final end.
