The Hall of Doors

The First Shard

De: Charles Oliver

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Some doors lead to adventure.
Some doors test who you are.
And some doors don’t let you leave the same.

Nine-year-old Kai is good at noticing things—patterns, details, truths other people miss. He’s not so good at being seen. Until a broken vending machine whispers his name and gives him a key that shouldn’t exist.

Behind the cafeteria wall is the Hall of Doors: a vast stone corridor lined with doors to dangerous worlds, each ruled by its own unforgiving laws. Worlds that watch you. Test you. Take pieces of you if you fail.

When Kai and his fearless friend Rowan step through the first door, they discover the truth too late:

This isn’t an adventure meant to be won.
It’s a system designed to separate.

With the help of a strange guide named Pip, the kids must survive worlds that steal names, twist memories, and force impossible choices—while something known as the Shadow Traveler moves through the Hall, waiting for them to break.

As shards are claimed and doors awaken, Kai learns that courage doesn’t have to be loud, friendship can be tested by impossible choices, and sometimes the bravest thing you can do is refuse to walk away.

Because the Hall remembers everything.

And once you enter…
the race has already begun.
