4-6Animas series.
Illustrated by
Jim Madsen.
Having Awakened to his Animas--Taleth, the last of the white tigers--Bailey discovers that he's the prophesied Child of War, "who will herald a new king for Aldermere." But enemies claim the throne for themselves. While the series doesn't stand out in the genre, its combination of classic fantasy tropes and a boarding-school setting should appeal to Harry Potter fans.
