Cameron Battle has to be one of the most tenderhearted characters I’ve ever read.

He’s a sweetheart, and just the right hero for this African-inspired fantasy as Cameron portals with his friends into the world of Chidani.

Along the way, I was inspired by Cameron learning more about his family ancestry as well as his own identity.
