Obermaier’s Travelling Carnival is like no other show on earth. Despite its modest size and appearance, the unusual performers possess unworldly abilities which they utilize to enhance their acts. Their children, affectionately known as The Carnie Kids, also enjoy the same abilities and use them for their own amusement.
Thinking the small dessert town of Trenthide would be just like every other, the Carnie Kids go in search of adventure and are soon embroiled in a sinister word of kidnapping and unbelievable scientific research. They quickly find themselves the prey of malicious intent and greed, with a power hungry corporate kingpin who will stop at nothing to get what he wants.
The kids must use their amazing abilities in ways they never have before if they are going to survive the unwanted attention of the Stellar Corporation; a task that seems increasingly impossible when they encounter a fantastical force of man-made botanical mayhem, the like of which has never been conceived before.
