Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A series of modern fantasy books written by DJ MacHale. Each book is divided into two viewpoints. The journal segments, detailing the adventures of Bobby Pendragon, the main character, who is whisked away from his Ordinary High-School Student life by his Uncle Press, via a magical gate called a flume hidden in the subway systems of New York City. The other part follows Bobby's best friends, Mark and Courtney, who get into a bit of trouble themselves, despite lacking the ability to travel to alternate worlds. (The only book that doesn't use this formula is The Soldiers of Halla, which consists entirely of one journal written by Bobby.) Each world is called a territory, and every territory has a Traveler, filling various roles. Every territory is reaching a turning point, which will radically alter the fate of that world. The Travelers exist to make sure that the turning points, and the destiny of the territories, go the way they naturally would, without outside interference. Obviously, if this was all there was to it, it'd be pretty uneventful. Enter Saint Dane, a sadistic Magnificent Bastard who wants to push the territories towards chaos, destroying the barriers between them, so he can reshape Halla (everything that has existed, does exist, and ever will exist) in his image. The series consists of 10 books, with the final book released May 12, 2009.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The series' books include: The Merchant of Death The Lost City of Faar The Never War The Reality Bug Black Water The Rivers of Zadaa The Quillan Games The Pilgrims of Rayne Raven Rise The Soldiers of HallaIn addition to the main series, there is also a trio of prequels, Pendragon: Before the War, showing what happened to the nine other Travelers besides Bobby before their journey began; a Guide to the Territories of Halla Volume 1, with no Volume 2 in sight; and a graphic novel version of The Merchant of Death. And the obsessive reference-spotters will note that MacHale's movie Tower of Terror along with his Morpheus Road series take place in the same continuity.And so we go.

Earth Is the Center of the Universe
 The Pendragon Adventure / int_18e33968
comment
Earth Is the Center of the Universe: Ten Territories, and three of them are Earth. Even more, Bobby Pendragon, from the modern-day world of Second Earth, is the lead Traveler. Clearly, Earth is special. In Raven Rise, Bobby himself says that everything's been leading to the events on Second Earth. Also, Second Earth is where everything is lost spectacularly at the end of the book. In The Soldiers of Halla, it is explained that in reality Halla should be considered seven worlds, not ten territories. Saint Dane simply targeted Earth and Veelox at multiple turning points, thus dividing it up. The trope is still played straight due to the final battle happening in Third Earth.

 The Pendragon Adventure / int_1b9695df
comment
The Force: Saint Dane's, as well as all the Traveler's powers are derived from Solara. The Travelers get it from the positive energy within Solara, Saint Dane gets his from the negativity of humanity. However, both sides must use this power sparingly because it literally depletes Solara.

Voluntary Shapeshifting: Saint Dane, again. All the travelers get this power once they arrive in Solara. They have to use it very sparingly though. Bobby only turns to smoke with it. Hilarity ensues when Bobby tries to use it himself without actually knowing how it works, and it boiled down to him trying to will it into happening:

Dark World: The dark Solara that Saint Dane momentarily warps Bobby to is a twisted nightmare land with images of destruction flying about in the background and constant lightning flashes. There's a more direct example in The Pilgrims of Rayne. Rubic City is now a post-apocalyptic wasteland where Flighters can attack Bobby and Siry at any given moment. Not to mention the Dados.

Bobby, frequently. The first screw up was the turning point for Denduron. Tak, while discovered by the rebels, had not been able to be used in huge amounts besides pea-sized amounts for their slingshots. However, due to Bobby bringing his flashlight with him from second earth, had made the rebels find a way to harness more Tak to create a Bomb.

After the End: Ibara. Majority of Veelox's people go to "live" in Lifelight and they eventually die to no one keeping the life support systems going. (Such as producing the food that is given to their bodies to stay alive) The End? Not Quite. Aja Killian manages to create a Hope Spot by somehow gathering a small amount of people now outside of Lifelight and ends up giving the territory a second chance.

Bittersweet Ending: This series loves them. The series itself ends on this note. Saint Dane is defeated, the Ravinians are allowed to truly control their own destiny and live beyond the walls of the Conclaves, but nobody who was displaced by Naymeer is able to return home. There's a time reset where the Travelers and Acolytes get sent back to live the lives they would have had if they hadn't been yanked to save the world. Minus their memories of their time as Travelers and each other until Press brings back their journals in the very end.

 The Pendragon Adventure / int_5ac34441
comment
Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp": Black Water's "Gar" (humans) and "Klee" (giant cats). Klee is a proper noun with no English translation. Gar probably means something weird without a good English equivalent, perhaps a mix of "human" and "slave." Many Earth languages don't line up. See Tsundere, a Japanese colloquialism with no good partner in the English language. Rather than translate it, we simply adopt it verbatim.

Ship Sinking: More like Ship Bait-and-Switch. Bobby/Courtney appears sunk in book 6... and then out of nowhere they end up getting to marry and grow old together in the epilogue. The clock was rewound all the way back to before each of them became Travelers, so they could life out the lives they would have otherwise had, after what Bobby says to Uncle Press just before the epilogue. So Bobby and Courtney wouldn't have had to deal with the "I'm too busy saving the world and I like Loor" deal, and gotten together.

Magic A Is Magic A: Right up until the climax of the last book, where Saint Dane dies because his followers turn on him without any acknowledgment that this doesn't follow from the rules laid down only a few hundred pages ago. Another example in the last book: in previous books, characters had gone out of their way to acknowledge that they were traveling between territories, not planets. Then, in Soldiers of Halla, this view is revised so that it's clear to everyone that there are seven planets, and that the territories don't matter.

One of the more egregious examples is in "The Pilgrims of Rayne" when Bobby decides to trap Saint Dane by blowing up the flume, so neither can leave This particular example has Bobby holding the Idiot Ball as well, since by this point it's been shown that most territories have more than one flume. Why would Rayne be an exception? What makes this even more of a case of holding the Idiot Ball is that Bobby already knows at this point that Ibara is actually Veelox's future. Therefore, he already knows there's at least another flume in the territory: the one in Rubic City. There isn't any indication that the old flume has been destroyed by the time Bobby decides to blow up the Ibara flume.

Black and White Morality: We find out in The Soldiers of Halla that Solara, the birth place of the Travelers, was originally a place of balance before Saint Dane started monkeying around with things. Due to the existence of Ravinia, Solara has been split into two separate planes of existence. One represents the positive aspects of mankind and is fueled by the hopes of the Exiles. The other, darker, Solara covers the negative aspects and is being empowered by the evil intents of those who joined Ravinia.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: Bobby, frequently. The first screw up was the turning point for Denduron. Tak, while discovered by the rebels, had not been able to be used in huge amounts besides pea-sized amounts for their slingshots. However, due to Bobby bringing his flashlight with him from second earth, had made the rebels find a way to harness more Tak to create a Bomb. One of the more egregious examples is in "The Pilgrims of Rayne" when Bobby decides to trap Saint Dane by blowing up the flume, so neither can leave This particular example has Bobby holding the Idiot Ball as well, since by this point it's been shown that most territories have more than one flume. Why would Rayne be an exception? What makes this even more of a case of holding the Idiot Ball is that Bobby already knows at this point that Ibara is actually Veelox's future. Therefore, he already knows there's at least another flume in the territory: the one in Rubic City. There isn't any indication that the old flume has been destroyed by the time Bobby decides to blow up the Ibara flume. Saint Dane's plans usually consist on inducing several characters into this trope, including the Travelers. In fact, his entire plan depends on Bobby falling into this trope.

Gainax Ending: A mild example, but the contradictions make it fall under this trope. Though told every person displaced through time and space must stay on the ruined worlds they're currently on and can't go back home, and after most of the Travelers return to Solara, Bobby expresses regret that he won't be able to live a normal life. Uncle Press considers this. Suddenly, a flashback of Bobby's "normal" life plays, where he married Courtney and Mark dies of cancer. Bobby is lying on his deathbed when a strange man in a long coat comes in and gives him a clutter of papers- his old journals. End book.

Refusal of the Call: Bobby didn't want to be a Traveler. Elli Winter was supposed to be the Traveler from Quillan, but she turned down the position because she felt she wasn't ready and was currently past the Despair Event Horizon. Kasha refuses longer than everyone else.

Un-person: What happens to Bobby, his family and other Travelers when they begin their journeys. In Bobby's case, his records are stricken from any school or government database, his phone number (complete with graffiti) is stricken from the phone book, heck, even Bobby's house is erased from existence, leaving an empty lot where the house once stood. The only records still around are people's memories of the Traveler and their journals. In book 3, it is revealed that travelers have no history, so they can never appear on the Third Earth simulator. This allows Bobby to figure out that Harlow is Saint Dane.

A Nazi by Any Other Name: Ravinia. Separating one group of people from others? Check. Claiming that one group is superior and only them deserve rights? Check. Putting the "inferior" people into concentration camps and try to kill them all? Check. The Earth one is a variation because people are separated by "ability" rather than race/ethnicity. In other worlds like Zadaa and Eelong, this is completely played straight.

Hope Spot: Scarily enough, Saint Dane encourages these moments of apparent victory, just so it will hurt more when he sweeps the rug out from under them. Made even more sadistic when we find out Saint Dane's true motives. By defeating you when you're at the cusp of victory, Saint Dane more easily drives in the notion that your situation is hopeless, destroying your will to take destiny into your own hands. By doing this, he effectively takes away your free will, which in turn makes him even more powerful as he feeds on your subsequent hopelessness and despair.

Six of these civilizations are exclusively human.

Infallible Narrator: Bobby. Made especially glaring because writing the story down was one of the major plot points, and we're supposed to believe that in many cases he had hand-written a well planned out eloquent narrative in a single night. Later insight into the nature of Travelers explains this to a degree. In the last book, he notes that he has perfect recall of every moment of his life.

Redemption Equals Death: Nevva. She made sure that the Exiles survived for the most part, and told Bobby and Elli the secret to defeating Saint Dane. What does she get in return? She gets scattergunned in the back and is denied access to Solara after death. She also said she could not be saved because Dark Solara gave her existence and she had betrayed it. So why couldn't she rejoin Light Solara? There is a happy note to this: when all world's histories returned to normal without St. Dane and the flumes, Nevva never turned evil, she would've helped Mr. Pop defeat Blok in this timeline, and maybe she and Elli reunited.

Artistic License – Physics: Supposedly, Cloral in The Lost City of Faar is an earth-like planet with earth-like gravity, pressure, atmosphere, etc. The one difference is that it's a water world. Bobby and Uncle Press arrived in a cave in a coral reef 20 meters (the book says 60 feet) underwater. The problem is that the air pressure inside the cave would have to be at least three atmospheres. To be precise, the air pressure would have to be the water pressure at the depth of the water surface inside the cave. Apparently, on Cloral, they create solid (room-temperature) material from water, material that can be used to make things. (Of course, they're not referring to ice.)
