Gil Tyner has plans for the future: he's going to be a computer programmer in the bustling technology Mecca of Silicon Valley. And as his 21st birthday approaches, he's on the cusp of realizing his goals. But fate has other plans. A note from his mother on his birthday propels Gil into The Buffer Zone, seven magical kingdoms that stand between our world and the realm of the immortal elves. Gil's about to learn that plans can change. When destiny calls, he'll discover that the life he'd imagined and the life he'll lead will be very different.

When he comes home from college to celebrate his 21st birthday, Our Hero, Gil, is bemused to find his parents missing.
Looking down in the basement, he discovers a secret door that leads into a fantasy land, complete with elves, dragons, wizards, castles, and all the rest that you might expect.
Gil learns that his parents have been hiding a double life from him for all these years - he is actually the designated Hero of Varay and not only that, but the king's grandson and Heir to the Realm!
Although he was a computer science major, Gil is rather jock-like, and fighting and heroics seem to come naturally to him. Which is lucky, because when he discovers that his father has been killed in Varay's struggle against the encroachments of Faery, he of course must accept the quest to lead that struggle and seek his revenge.
Very light reading, and a bit silly at times. ( )
