Book Description:
Strange things happen at Hexwood Farm.

From her window, Ann Stavely watches person after person disappear through the farm's gate -- and never come out again. Later, in the woods nearby, she meets a tormented sorcerer, who seems to have arisen from a centuries-long sleep. But Ann knows she saw him enter the farm just that morning. Meanwhile, time keeps shifting in the woods, where a small boy -- or perhaps a teenager -- has encountered a robot and a dragon. Long before the end of their adventure, the strangeness of Hexwood has spread from Earth right out to the center of the galaxy.

Ann Stavely watches person after person disappear through the farm's gate--and never come back out again. Later she meets a tormented sorcerer, Mordion, who seems to have arisen from a centuries-long sleep, but Ann KNOWS she saw him enter the farm just that morning. She also meets the boy, Hume, who keeps changing his age.
Hexwood Farm is a place where nothing can be taken for granted. It is full of machines that should not be tampered with - when one is, the aftershock is felt throughout the universe. Only Hume, Ann and Mordion can prevent an apocalypse - but are they too being altered by the whims of Hexwood?
