What is Dark Lord - The Teenage Years about?

After a mighty battle, the defeated Dark Lord is hurled into the Pit of Uttermost Despair—only to land in a supermarket car park in modern England, trapped inside the body of thirteen-year-old Dirk Lloyd. Forced to live with a cheerful foster family and attend school, Dirk plots to regain his powers and return to the Darklands. With Christopher and Goth girl Sooz at his side, he attempts a spell that could change everything, but ordinary teenage life keeps getting in the way.
