Aira: Dawn (The World Stone Trilogy, Part 1)

Dylan Abbeton, Gregory Johnson, Samuel Nerat and Meghan Browning are your average high-school teenagers: they worry about grades, the school dance, and their day-to-day lives. While their first years at East High have been full of the ordinary, they soon discover that fate has other plans in store for them. When a strange occurrence at their local coffeehouse sends them halfway across the universe, they must band together and try to discover a way home. Aira: Dawn is the first part of The World Stone Trilogy, the tale of a friendship that spans the galaxy. The journey of the "off-worlders", a nickname they are quickly given, takes them from the shack known as the Caffe of the Bay to the far reaches of the north and back again. Along the way they'll encounter conspiracy, betrayal, and the beginnings of a plot that will threaten to unravel the very foundation of the planet...
