Gordy, 12yo, has a bright future coming as an elixirist, a
potion master. One day Gordy is working
in the lab with his best friends, Max and Adilene, when they receive a package
from his Aunt Priscilla. Gordy knows he
probably shouldn’t open it, but he does any way. What he doesn’t realize is
that he has started the race to posses The Eternity Elixir. Whoever controls
the Elixir can also control The Vessel, the source of every potion maser’s
power.
There are many amusing details in Cole’s world-building, but also some absurd ones. Like Max – who is
highly annoying for me as an adult. But
the adventure, danger, and excitement outshines the minor problems. I now need to get my hands on the next two in
the series!
