While staying with his aged relative, miles away from his home and
friends, James finds a playground, complete with a stream and a
waterfall running through it. On the other side of the water, is another
young lad, much the same age. Someone who is as keen to have a friend as
he is. James crosses the bridge and enters Gordon's world. They uncover
an ancient sword. They can't tell anyone about it or they will be in
trouble so they hide the object until the following year. Only, things
don't go to plan. James returns but things have changed. His friend is
nowhere to be found. Instead, James finds himself drawn into adventures
and mysteries crossing time and space. James finds himself caught up in
events from the 1960s, 1066 and even the Gunpowder Plot. He and the
sword must now work together to try to keep history on track.
