My New Book: Beyond The Fence

I recently wrote a middle grade fantasy. It's about goblins and magic and stuff and was written for my son. Written with him, actually. He brainstormed with me and did my proofreading. He was a great assistant.

Synopsis:

Eleven year old Avery and his 7 year old brother move into a new house. Avery finds himself feeling strange and unable to explain it. After he has several encounters with a goblin, he learns that the forest beyond the fence houses a doorway to magic. Avery’s feelings of unease are caused by his sensitivity to it. He can wield magic, if he learns how.

During an encounter with the mysterious Dream King, his pet becomes a person, his brother becomes a barbarian and one friend can fly. The people in Avery’s life, from family to friends, start acting strange and are getting sick. He has to do something before things get worse. Who do you get advice from when you need advice about magic?

It’s up to Avery and his faithful husky to stop the Dream King, and Avery is not sure it’s a battle he can win.

You can buy the book at amazon or read the first few scenes at First750.com.

This was a fun project. My son and I decided that we are going to make this a trilogy and add two more parts. I already have the basic plots outlined and I'll start on it soon.
