HERO OF CASTLE DAUNTLESS NOW AVAILABLE IN PRINT AND E-BOOK EDITIONS
Posted on October 25, 2024
I'm super proud of the character depth in this project. This tale of an orphan trying to solve the mystery of his parents' disappearance has such emotional weight. Along the way, he realizes he's acquired a family of friends without really being aware of the bonds he's forged.
The cast has pluck and verve and will melt your heart, especially the plight of the bog troll.
The worldbuilding smacks you in the face from the start with a crazy spell slinging scene in a library under siege by page mites and other magical nasties.
This is my first cozy mystery, and I find my work feels right at home with the genre.
Here's the back cover summary:
Fifteen-year-old orphan, Caleb Drexel, is convinced his parents are still alive and that Castle Dauntless is to blame for their disappearance seven years ago.
What secrets and dangers will the reckless boy unearth as he braves forgotten areas of the magical castle in the hopes of reuniting with his mom and dad?
Once again, Clopper creates a memorable cast that includes: a bog troll, a clingy gentleman ghost, a stubby dragon, a bounty-hunting warrior witch, and much more. Filled with wit and heart, Hero of Castle Dauntless is a timeless adventure about the power of friendship and family ties.
Give Hero of Castle Dauntless a try.
