THE SEEING-EYE ORCHID

“Consider yourself warned. Once you set foot in the magical realm of Pumbria, a big part of your brain and heart will never leave.” - Peter de Jonge, Bestselling Author of Shadows Still Remain

“Wielding a great sense of magic that feels at once familiar and wondrous, Tales of Pumbria caught us from the start with a mix of action, tenderness and just enough spookiness to keep us going.” - M.O. (Father of two girls)

What if a magical kind existed before us? What if one still exists?

In this captivating fantasy book, two children, a girl and a boy, stumble upon a profound mystery when they realize that they share dreams of a strange, otherworldly place. This discovery leads them to an astonishing revelation: their dreams are not mere figments of their imagination, but portals to a different dimension. Their journey in this new realm begins when they encounter two mystical creatures, a giant owl and an enormous, rabbit-like being who become their guides.

Together, the group sets off on a nocturnal adventure to the Great Brindlebugen Library, an ancient and revered repository of knowledge, once maintained by the orchizians, a now-extinct magical race. Their quest is to find a particular book that holds the secret location of a rare and mystical Seeing-Eye Orchid, believed to possess profound powers and wisdom.

Their journey is fraught with danger, as they must evade the Great Deceiver of Drolg, Drezg, a rogue orchizian whose treachery led to the downfall of his kind and unleashed a devastating plague across the land of Pumbria. The group's mission is more than a search for knowledge, it is a search for truth and redemption. They seek to confirm a prophecy: that the seed who evaded the dark plague centuries ago has returned to Pumbria, signaling the return of the last orchizian. Has the one destined to redeem Pumbria come back?

This tale is a rich tapestry of fantasy, weaving together themes of destiny, self-discovery, ancient prophecies, and the enduring power of friendship and courage. It captures the imagination with its vivid world and the intriguing mystery at its heart, offering a journey that is as thrilling as it is thought-provoking. The story is a testament to the power of hope and the unyielding quest for truth in a world filled with wonder and peril.

The lost dimension awaits, but do be wary, an epic is brewing.

What if a magical kind existed before us? What if one still exists and lives among us?

A seven year old girl named Maddy wonders if there is something wrong with her. She hates waking up for school in the mornings. Maddy prefers to draw late into the night in the comfort of her home. One night, well past bedtime, Maddy draws a tawny owl and falls asleep at her desk. She wakes up in a magical land. A giant owl is waiting to bring Maddy to a fantastical place where ginormous trees glow, and nature breathes magic.

The giant owl flies Maddy to the Glittering Greenwood, where Maddy meets a series of magical creatures and animals who help her to see the power of a Night Owl heart.
