The scariest wars are civil wars—when hatred goes beyond all limits, when brother fights against brother, when capture can be more frightening than death. That is exactly the situation faced by a group of five northerners whose desire for freedom was stronger than fear of being taken prisoner or killed in an attempt to escape. But the outcome of their escape by hot air balloon proved unpredictable: as a result of a hurricane, they were swept onto an uninhabited island. There they will face many adventures and dangers, but their courage, knowledge, and ingenuity will allow them not only to survive, but also to set up their life there. And the island, which only seemed uninhabited, in fact has had its Owner for a long time—a powerful, strong, and just one who helps the islanders in case of mortal danger, but who wants to hide his identity from everyone.
