Filipino author creates a new world of fantasy

PETER Huddleston lived a dull life in a quiet town with his decidedly normal father and stepmother. He awoke each morning with the intention of just fitting in and being like everyone else—that is until he gets shipped to Hillside Manor—a house with 3,000 rooms and serves as a gateway to the magical and mysterious world of Galadria, where Peter’s family reigns.

As the only heir to the throne, Peter learns that he has been summoned to face the “Rites of Passage” and quickly realizes why fitting in and being normal has never been easy for him.
