On the eve of George Grimes's thirteenth birthday, a man with a forked beard and a crooked nose clambers out of the Grandfather clock in the upstairs hallway. The man claims to be from Mythika - a world that George thought only existed in his Grandad's tall tales. The evil Lord Helwrath - once a boy who lost his imagination - has been murdering Creators, the name given to artists who keep his power in check. When George enters Mythika, he joins forces with a talented group of young artists to stop Helwrath before it's too late. But a long-kept family secret leads some to believe that George can create the only power strong enough to fight Helwrath... Soulfire. From the co-author of LGBTQ fairy tales Promised Land and Maiden Voyage comes a new upper middle grade fantasy adventure. The story and characters were wonderfully engaging, and it conjures Narnia and traditional fantasy tropes in a way that felt fresh, modern and relevant. I especially loved the emphasis on creating and how organically it was woven into the narrative ~ Mark Ordesky, Executive Producer of The Lord of the Rings trilogy
