Synopsis
A war has been waging for centuries; a magical and technological battle between good and evil. This conflict will affect life everywhere, but not everyone is aware it exists. When twelve-year old Max Rigdon is sent to stay with his grandfather for the summer, he unwillingly enters the fight.
The day Max steps off the bus he is marked with an evil curse and immediately becomes the target of evil men and creatures with designs on ruling the universe. Not only does this curse cause Max physical pain but it allows his enemies to track and find him. He soon learns that the reason for this unwanted attention is because his grandfather is the keeper of a gateway; a powerful machine that makes travel to hundreds of strange unknown worlds possible. The enemy will do anything to gain possession of this power in their quest to control all worlds.
With the help of his friend Cindy and others, Max must quickly learn the necessary skills to survive if he is to avoid the deadly trap that has been planned for him and his grandfather. A trap that has been decades in the making with Max as the missing piece. If successful it will change life as we know it.

Max and the Gatekeeper by James Todd Cochrane
Reviewed by Michaela Sefler http://msefler-inspiration.net
Max and the gatekeeper, is a beautifully written story, I was glued to the book as James Todd Cochrane unravels
with great imagination and insight , a young boy's adventure into a magical world through
a gateway in his grandfather?s house, escaping to new worlds.
As Max and his friend discover the gateway, they begin to understand the mystery and danger before them, attempting to reconcile worlds
as they transverse through the gateway, to worlds beyond. Through Max our hero, James Todd Cochrane unravels a wonderful plot, touching upon vital aspects of
adolescent curiosity and interest through imaginative and educational constructs. I was
well entertained reading this book and would recommend it to the warrior within every teen. **** stars.
