Publisher Description: An angry Goth girl. A science prodigy. A New Jersey juvenile delinquent. They're abducted to Sinnabar-a dying world, choking on its own magical red dust. Ice-eyed wizards rule, backed by a killer army. Brigands crisscross the deserts, riding lizards. City slum gangs steal and murder. Here, the abductees face enslavement. Then, death. Their only ally, a stow-away dog, can speak in Sinnabar's magical air. He wants to help, but he's feckless. For weapons, the abductees wield just the talents for which they were taken. They have their friendship, though. And courage. Still, their chances of survival-zero. In the end.... Here's one reader's reaction to Sinnabar- "I'm loving this author and can't wait to read another story-Five Stars." Here's a second reader's evaluation Outstanding performance (Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2019) As a 38-year veteran writing\literature instructor, I could not help but rate this novel highly The parallel realms come to life as if I were in the theater Author has uncanny ability to write fantasy fiction that boarders so close to reality. I highly recommend this novel and all others by him. Shirley Harris, M.Ed. Wiggins, MS-FIVE STARS Here are reactions from two readers on Goodreads, the international on-line book club- "I loved this action-packed fantasy novel by Richard Wolkomir. I think teens and adults would both enjoy this story and find Tobi the talking Corgi as entertaining as I did -Five Stars." "A rollicking good read- John Carter of Mars meets Arabian Nights....Living in Wales I particularly enjoyed the Corgi Hope Richard writes further books featuring the exploits of Tom and his comrades-Four Stars." |
