findthatbookHi there,
I have been trying years to find this book, I read it when I was a teenager for English class and it has still remained one of the best fantasy epics I have ever read.
The books are part of a trilogy. To my knowledge, it features a scrawny nerdy kid, a buff bully boy and a girl who leave their bus after school one day and wonder into the forest. The nerdy kid had just gotten bullied by the other boy and ran off into the forest. All three eventually fall down into a hole and end up in a fantasy world.
I think the plot is along the lines of them finding their way home. They encounter a black wizard on the way and a gang of travellers. The black wizard in the first book has a dual personality and turns against them towards the end of the first book.
I also think the end of the third book is along the lines of the nerdy kid meeting a dark lord and finds out that the evil that infests the fantasy land is technology/science and they need the nerdy kid to continue their "evildoings".
I know this is probably vague, but hopefully someone can help me out!
Thanks in advance!
