The Dagger of Incredible Ability

With great power comes major trouble...The last time Ray Sebastian got his hands on a magical artifact, it turned out to be the most dangerous thing in the world. But this time, he's discovered a magic dagger that seems too good to be true. One touch from this dagger bestows incredible abilities-Ray transforms from a wimp to a kung-fu master, his friend Clancy gets the ability to shoot like Robin Hood, and even Ray's pokey dad instantly learns to drive like a NASCAR legend. Who wouldn't want an artifact like that?And that's the problem. Everyone wants it.By everyone, that doesn't just mean the enemies Ray knows about, like the secret society that controls half of Centerville. It also means black-suited squads of mysterious government agents who will stop at nothing to get the dagger for their own agenda. And worst of all, it means the new kid at school, Finn Chatsworth-a genius level super-bully that wants much, much more than to make Ray's life miserable.If Ray isn't careful, he's going to lose everything-the dagger, his freedom, his family, his friendship with Clancy... and even the one thing he never asked for: his destiny as The Shining One.
