Severkin is an elf who slinks through the shadows of Wellhall's spiraling stone towers, plundering ancient ruins and slaying mystical monstrosities with ease. He's also a character in a video game--a character that twelve-year-old Nick Reeves plays when he needs a break from the real world. And lately, Nick has really needed a break. His mother had an "incident" at school last year, and her health has taken a turn for the worse. Nick is convinced his mother's illness has been misdiagnosed, but no one believes him. His only escape is the online world of Wellhall, where, as the elf character Severkin, he can face any problem. But when Nick finds himself fighting alongside another elf who reminds him of someone he knows in real life, his worlds begin to collide. . . . 650 0 $a Fantasy games $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Racially mixed children $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Patients $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and sons $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Video games $v Juvenile fiction. 650 1 $a Mothers and sons $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Video games $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Alzheimer's disease $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Mothers and sons. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027007 650 7 $a Video games. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01166421 650 7 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Patients. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00806557 650 7 $a Fantasy games. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00920831 650 7 $a Racially mixed children. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086590 650 7 $a JUVENILE FICTION / Family. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a JUVENILE FICTION / Social Themes / Emotions & Feelings. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a JUVENILE FICTION / Social Themes / Friendship. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 941 $a 3 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012031346.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20170301012248.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20161216012354.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=364C73F0BD1411E68AD1C495DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
