Cerras, the god of Paramis, has willed himself to sleep, allowing dragons and humankind to reign in his stead. Justin Silas and Karen of Delayne are dragons from Paramis who can change into mortal form at will. When they befriend the Underhills, a family from Earth, something much deeper than magic is at play. But all is not well . . . Lane, an exotically beautiful dragon, betrays her own kind, turning both races against each other. She longs to usurp the throne of Cerras and destroy the god with his very own power. But fate lies with Charlie Underhill, a small boy from Earth, who - since the collision - harbors a special kind of magic all his own.
