Synopsis

Aldwyn, a street-smart alley cat, pretended he had telekinetic powers so young wizard Jack would chose him as a familiar. Aldwyn then learned that he and two other familiars—Skylar the blue jay and Gilbert the tree frog—were destined to undertake a perilous quest to defeat Paksahara, an evil hare who’d been familiar to the queen.
 
In Circle of Heroes, the third book of The Familiars series for middle-grade readers, Paksahara and her undead animal army control the Shifting Fortress. Aldwyn and his friends have to recapture it to return magic to the queendom of Vastia.
 
Fans of The Guardians of Ga’hoole series and Erin Hunter’s Warriors books will love the mix of humor, magic, and animal adventure story in Circle of Heroes by Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Adam Jay Epstein spent his childhood in Great Neck, New York, while Andrew Jacobson grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but the two met in Los Angeles. They have been writing together for film and television ever since.

Their interest in space dates back to their early years, when Adam attended Space Academy in Huntsville, Alabama (and won the Right Stuff Award!), and Andrew went to a movie theater (for the first time) to see a rerelease of Star Wars.

Adam Jay Epstein lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Jane, and their daughters, Penny and Olive. Andrew Jacobson, his wife, Ashley, their son, Ryder, their daughter, Willa, and their two dogs live close by.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

With human magic still gone in Vastia, it's up to Aldwyn, Skylar, and Gilbert to capture the Shifting Fortress and bring the evil Paksahara down. To overcome Paksahara's spell, the familiars embark on a dangerous quest to gather seven descendants of the queendom's most ancient and powerful animals. Time is already running out when Aldwyn finds a troubling scroll and begins to doubt their plan.

With inventive magic, epic action, and laugh-out-loud humor bursting from every page, Circle of Heroes is an extraordinary tale of friendship and adventure you won't want to see end.
