Summary: @debbiebishop_ WINNER - LITERARY TITAN GOLD BOOK AWARD - FICTION WINNER - FIRST PLACE FICTION-FANTASY-EPIC INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARDS WINNER - FIRST PLACE FICTION-FANTASY BOOKFEST "I highly recommend this book to tween readers who enjoy high fantasy, such as The Lord of the Rings..." Literary Titan reviewer "Pillywiggin: The Lost Shadow Boys by Debbie Bishop strikes a perfect balance between the fantastical and the relatable, making it both enjoyable and profoundly meaningful." "In the perilous world of Mantelrealm, survival is a formidable challenge, particularly for Jayce, who leads a group of young boys captured by a malevolent witch during a massive battle. Despite possessing fairy magic, their escape from the blistering prison is not an option through flight. Instead, they are forced to craft makeshift tools to mine fairy dust under the vigilant eyes of mercenary dragons and enigmatic creatures known as Oddizens. Their only hope for freedom lies in a boy who managed to escape and smuggled in supplies. However, with past escape attempts having failed and time running out, they anxiously await the fulfillment of a prophecy that foretells the arrival of a girl destined to save them. But will she arrive in time? Pillywiggin: The Lost Shadow Boys by Debbie Bishop strikes a perfect balance between the fantastical and the relatable, making it both enjoyable and profoundly meaningful. The young protagonists, despite their age, bear the weighty responsibilities and challenges typically associated with adulthood. This stark contrast between their youth and the burdens they carry evokes a deep sense of empathy. Their struggles with loss, responsibility, and survival in an unforgiving world mirror the real-life challenges many young people face today, who are forced to mature too quickly. This unexpected depth adds a compelling layer to the story, transforming it into more than just a fantastical escape. The language used in the book is highly accessible, broadening its appeal to readers as young as twelve. Though firmly within the fantasy genre, the plot remains easy to follow. This accessibility is particularly evident in how Bishop introduces and develops the story’s prophecy..." Literary Titan reviewer "In a forest, a mysterious figure drops a crucial parcel, which a young boy named Tash retrieves. Inside is Chloe, a baby with a special mark, destined to combat dark magic. Fast forward ten years, and Chloe’s curiosity leads her to explore places, despite Tash’s warnings. As she uncovers hidden dangers and helps free captives, including a powerful fairy, her true role begins to surface. Meanwhile, Tash faces his own battles against dark forces. With Chloe’s powers slowly awakening, the stakes grow higher. Will she fulfill her destiny and confront the approaching evil? The journey has only just begun. PILLYWIGGIN The Lost Shadow Boys by Debbie Bishop takes readers on an exciting adventure filled with magical realms and courageous heroes. The story is full of action-packed scenes and vivid descriptions...The author’s writing style is both engaging and vivid, bringing the enchanting and mysterious world to life with clear, imaginative prose. The author's creativity is exceptional, creating a fantastical realm that feels both magical and tangible. There is nothing I didn’t like about the book. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. One of the book’s strongest qualities is its suspenseful moments. The author does an excellent job bringing in tension, making you feel like you’re right there with the characters. I recommend the book to fans of fantasy adventures and suspenseful stories." review - EBERE WRITES COCEPT

When Mason Chynoweth inherits an old house in small-town New Zealand, he hopes to discover what happened to his great-great uncle Lewis after he returned from the war in 1945.

Summary: Staging a musical in Purgatory can be absolute hell. Lonnie Coleridge last saw the sun in 1968. Since then, he’s been consigned to Limbo, still wearing the same tie-dyed T-shirt and bell-bottomed jeans he had on when he left his life behind. He and others like him have one chance each year at redemption: produce a show for the Greek pantheon. Whoever pleases this very specific—and temperamental—fan group could earn the right to move on. But after a literal act of god (*cough* Hermes *cough*) destroys their sets, lights, and costumes, the company needs emergency help to rebuild. Without it, all of them could poof out of existence forever. Out-of-work theater technician TD Baylor has precisely three things on his cosmic wish list: a job, a place to stay, and a boyfriend who isn’t a total tool. He thinks he’s got the first two nailed when he gets a line on a two-week gig that includes room and board. So what if the job tip came from a guy who was leaning way too hard into the LOTR cosplay at a sketchy Halloween pop-up? At this point, TD doesn’t have anything more to lose, so he figures…what the hell. He didn’t realize hell was the operative word. When Lonnie greets him at the theater door, though...whoa. TD fantasizes that item number three could be within his reach. But then Lonnie gives him the bad news: This is Purgatory Playhouse, aka Theater of the Darned. In two weeks—if they’re lucky and can successfully mount a musical version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream—the company will return to Limbo after the curtain falls. If they’re not lucky? Remember that part about hell? Purgatory Playhouse is part of the multi-author Magic Emporium Series. Each book stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium, a shop that can appear anywhere, but only once and only when someone’s in dire need. This book contains a theater techie who’s one couch surf away from homeless, a production assistant who’s sort of, um, not alive, Greek gods behaving very badly indeed, and a guaranteed HEA.
