Book Synopsis
The Pickpocket Who Inherited a Goldmine... After his harsh beginnings as a rough-and-tumble orphan on the streets of London, Jake Everton, the boy Earl of Griffon, takes his rightful place as the long-lost heir of an aristocratic family with magical powers - his personal quest, to follow in his slain parents' footsteps as a Lightrider in the age-old battle of good versus evil. In the fantastical nooks and crannies of the Victorian Age, Jake and his friends (including his pet Gryphon!) find no shortage of adventure - righting magic-related wrongs, solving supernatural mysteries, and exploring wondrous new worlds. When something wicked stalks a quaint town in the misty mountains of Wales, attacking humans and magic folk alike, Jake and his friends must get to the bottom of it. And in the land of deep, dwarven mines, the bottom can be very dark, indeed. (294 pages / 92,623 words)
