The Necklace: Curse of the Hourglass (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Collin Azle is about to find out curiosity really can kill.

He has a big imagination-and even bigger knack of getting into trouble because of it. He just can't help himself from climbing up gnarled trees or sneaking into closets that seem mysterious. Luckily, he's never gotten into any real trouble past groundings or threats of suspension. Until now.

When he puts on an irresistible blue hourglass necklace, Collin is given the adventure he's wanted since childhood. But like all great adventures, this one comes with a catch-the necklace bears a curse, and if Collin does not find the key to unlock it by midnight, he will die. His only guide? The spirit of the necklace's last victim.

With time against him, Collin and his two best friends, Rose and Will, must face the Ring of Islands, a circle of monumental doorways to alternate worlds that contain magical dangers, creatures, puzzles, and in one of them, the hidden key. He must put his ingenuity to the test and embrace the inner hero he always pretended to be, for if the necklace doesn't kill him, the threats inside the Islands just might-some more personal than others.

In this 213-page middle grade novel, journey through worlds filled with magical creatures, spell books, skeletons, speeding trains, and portals to space, and find out if Collin can find the key in time, or if this will be his most perilous adventure yet.

Autorenporträt

At twenty-eight years old, with a degrees in film and creative writing, I have been working on my first novel and beginning of its subsequent series for eighteen years. I have been writing my whole life, whether it has been books, poetry, or screenplays.

When I'm not writing, I do movie reviews on my YouTube channel. I've found my favorite stories are usually in the fantasy or dystopian genres, among them The Giver, The Girl Who Drank the Moon, Fahrenheit 451, The Night Circus, The Great Gatsby, The Hobbit, and the Harry Potter series, all of which greatly grew my love for and influenced my focus in writing.

Other than all things creative, I love to swing dance, I collect postcards from all over, and for me, there will never be a better season than Halloween. If I can live the rest of my life telling fun stories and making people gasp, cry, and laugh, I'll be a fulfilled man!
