Title: Debut YA Fantasy The Sword They Should Have Left Alone Opens a Bold New Adventure Across Three Colliding Worlds

United States, 23rd Feb 2026 — Author Michael Ban makes a powerful entrance into the Young Adult fantasy genre with his debut novel, The Sword They Should Have Left Alone (Rifts Between Three Worlds Book 1), published by Michael Ban Books. The novel introduces readers to an unforgettable adventure that fuses interdimensional conflict, sharp wit, and a deeply personal journey of courage and resilience.What begins as an ordinary Monday quickly descends into chaos when a sixteen year old city teen witnesses the unthinkable. Assassins from another world murder his father and abduct his mother through a mystical gateway. Armed with nothing more than a schoolbag, quick thinking, and an unexpectedly opinionated talking toothbrush, he steps into a war torn realm filled with monstrous creatures, political tension, and a destiny far greater than he ever imagined.Blending fast paced action with humor and emotional depth, Ban crafts a story that explores what it truly means to grow up when life changes without warning. Beneath the fantasy lies a powerful message. Courage is not the absence of fear. It is the decision to move forward despite it. Through intelligence, heart, and determination, the young protagonist confronts forces far larger than himself and discovers that heroism often begins in the most unlikely moments.Unlike traditional epic fantasies centered on trained warriors, The Sword They Should Have Left Alone presents a refreshingly modern hero. He is a tech savvy urban teenager navigating ancient magic and brutal conflict using resourcefulness rather than brute strength. The result is a story that speaks directly to today’s young readers and reminds them that bravery can exist in ordinary people.Michael Ban, a lawyer by training who works in commercial disput...
