Produktbeschreibung

Tiny people made of ancient straw, noble and brave, hidden in a mysterious valley, are suddenly attacked. Can they be protected? Craw, their evil blackbird enemy, bent on destroying the Straw People, would have to be defeated. Hiding his true identity, he waits for the right time to unveil his terror. Will this be the end of Straw Valley? Trolfs, Trolks, Trogwomps and other monstrous creatures will have to be fought. The valley is on the brink of War! Dweezlehumbard, a timid Strawwilligan boy, makes an unexpected discovery. Can he stop the evil once and for all?

"Tales of Endiluvia, The Discovery," is part one of a folklore fantasy adventure three-book series for middle-grade readers. Set against the backdrop of Edwardian England, the story takes the reader into the mysterious world of the Straw People, otherwise known as Strawwilligans. These tiny, eccentric folk, (nigh short of a kitchen fork), were once formed in the fields of an ancient and mystic straw. They, having lived in a secret valley for millennia and hidden from the human world were suddenly happened upon by a nine-year-old boy in 1919 England.

Tales of Endiluvia retells the story of a troubled eleven-year-old orphaned Strawwilligan boy, Dweezlehumbard Thistlethatch, and his nine-year-old brother who, despite being hounded by insecurities and fears, rise to the challenge of the village's pending destruction.

The story chronicles Dweezlehumbard's rise to fame. A boy once despised and frowned upon by those within his village now prepares for a journey across hostile territories to enlist an ancient race of angry Scarecrows to save his fickle villagers from the dreaded Blackbird Battalion who terrorize the valley. In an act of revenge, Craw their Blackbird foe captures Dweezlehumbard's dear inventor friend, Mr Strewwingle, and holds him, prisoner. Dweezle must now save him and his village! The demanding quest will also render a more personal journey, where ultimately Dweezlehumbard discovers his real identity as he searches for the truth about his parent's disappearance. With impending danger, ruthless monsters and a sense of heart-throbbing discovery, Dweezlehumbard uncovers the power of the Bekkorim (the hidden power of the chosen one), new friendships, and his true worth.

Dweezlehumbard and his new companions set out on a journey north to the dreaded Scarecrow Valley, where they are to forge old alliances with savage, malicious Scarecrows to help defeat Craw, their villainous blackbird enemy, once and for all. This journey continues in book two (which is still in writing) where the company veers off course, landing them in dire situations before they even reach Scarecrow Valley.
