My Purpose: to write an adventure story that is entertaining - without bloodshed and violence, without solving problems through aggression and bullying. I needed to show my own children that there is always another way.

​

This story is not political or religious. It does incorporate positive thinking, teamwork, and compromise. This is fantasy, with science fiction elements. Or it is science fiction with a hint of fantasy. To compromise: it is an interesting blend of science fiction and fantasy. 

​

It is character-driven. You will experience your child talking about the characters, laughing at their antics, and pondering the choices they make.

​

Throughout the story, Alec struggles with a sense of self. He's realizing for the first time that he has an identity - something middle graders can relate to. We see him making positive choices and developing an inner strength that allows him to deal with challenging situations in a productive way.
