Synopsis

Beside our own world, hidden deep underground away from prying eyes and the sun's glare, there's another mysterious world: The City of Shade. When the notorious Shadow Council that rule the city with an iron fist, sentence a peculiar shadow child to death because of his unusually bright eyes and loud voice, only the intervention of two unlikely heroes, Hubert and Dot, will change the situation for better or worse. Could it be that the human world, rampant with light and danger around every corner, is, in fact, the only safe place to hide the 'cursed child' from the Council's reach? "I absolutely love the main characters, Hubert and Dot. Not only are they cute together, with their playful bantering, but they are realistic. They both make mistakes and sometimes hurt one another, but you can tell that they truly love each other. The other characters are also well-written, but Hubert and Dot are truly a memorable pair." - Rachaelamb Action/Adventure/Fantasy. This book has a dark and unusual atmosphere to it. It touches upon a fantasy world that Shadow People live in, with similarities to our own. This book is PART 1 of a series to come following the exciting world of Shadows.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Kyle Stumpp was born in Lakenheath, Suffolk, a small rural village in the east of England. As an imaginative and introverted kid, Kyle feels trapped and scarcely stimulated by the provincial countryside lifestyle, which will soon bring him to start dreaming about moving to a bigger and better place. While planning his future and discovering his passion for art (particularly films), Kyle is struck by a series of unfortunate events which lead to him being diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety: he eventually resorts to staying indoors, hiding away from a world that he finds at this point overwhelming. Despite his personal struggle with the omnipresent depression, as years pass Kyle discovers that writing can distract him from his inner suffering, this is how a character named Envy finally comes into being. Envy is a shadow who lives within a darkened world of Shadow People, and shares many characteristics of the writer's own person. After a five year struggle, many times almost giving up, Kyle manages to complete his first book and writes a satisfying 'The End' to his long time project. Although he still suffers from depression and anxiety, he copes much better at the moment and is happy to talk about his illness as he believes strongly it is something that no one should hide.
