The Stevenson Chronicles: Deltorn

Robert Stevenson is an average high schooler. He's good at something; he just doesn't know what. It's summer break at his school, and he's on a mission to figure out what he can do. Unfortunately, all that changes on that day, the fateful day that the ocean surrounding their island, Dragona, spews up the world's worst tsunami and takes both of his parents. Out of his family, he alone is saved, but by what? Robert soon learns that all the myths about his home island are really true, and he is more important than he ever could have dreamed. It has been prophesied that he will one day destroy the dark forces known as the Dragon Warriors forever, and it is his job to make sure that that happens. Can Robert rise from the ashes of his old life and vanquish the evil, or will he die trying at the feet of his worst nightmare?
