TALES OF THE BLUE WIZARD Series: IBPA SILVER HONOREE AWARD Benjamin Franklin Digital Awards
In book three of this fantasy adventure series, the Little People sail the seas in search of a new home. Settling in the land of Akmantinkan, the three tribes of fairies soon separate due to internal strife, and the Aquamar Crystal Amulet is broken apart. The Paddiwok People are left alone in a savage new land where they have to deal with the local giants and an evil Baruki witchbird who hunts them. Help seems to come from a most unlikely source: Wolfyn and the Misfit Children who reunite with the Paddiwok People. But will they all live together in harmony or will some choose to leave and go their own way? Weaving together the history of the American Mound-builders, myths of ancient American giants and folklore of the American Southwest, book three combines history and fantasy in a new and exciting way.
