How do you escape from a prison, without friends-or a clue? Five years ago, Montague 'Monty Hill' Glupie, a sixteen-year-old boy with autism and a penchant for languages, found a book that promised to grant his every wish once he translated it. Along the way, he found Aislinn, the prettiest princess around. He survived Kalpana-thanks to the occasional wish-but will he be strong enough to survive the harsh truth of an earth where wishes don't work? When he returned home, he found the police were after him. Arrested on trumped up charges, Monty was sentenced to jail the day before they arrested him. Taken to a juvenile detention center, where everyone is against him, he discovers his enemy is back, and up to his old games. This time, however, Monty has no wishing powers. Can Monty outwit his former high-school principal, make friends without using wishes, and survive in a wild world he has never known? If Princess Aislinn and her family are to stand a chance, he must not only survive... he must escape. It all comes down to social skills, which Monty doesn't have. The only way he can win is to accept that his autism is still his superpower, but he has to put the power in it himself. Can he figure out a way to activate it without his wishes?
