Despite being shrunk down to two inches tall by Professor Hamilton's molecular scaling generator, the Phantom Zone villains Jax-Ur and Mala are at large again, ready to wreak havoc on Superman, Metropolis and the world. It's an even bigger problem for all concerned when the Man of Steel is also shrunk down, and his Kryptonian enemies stand ready to cut him further down to size!

Rather than being a hero with the fate of an entire world on his shoulders, Theodore Ellsworth spends his miserable days suffering merciless humiliation at the hands of prep-school bullies. It just so happens that an ancient prophecy, a shimmering city, and a herd of six-legged horses are about to change all that.When a mysterious book transports Theo and his overachieving little sister Marie to a world full of wonders that defy anything he's ever read about before, Theo finds himself accused of a crime he didn't commit that carries the ultimate penalty. A reluctant princess, a winged gnome, and a hot-tempered young sorceress are there to help, but will they be enough to prove to an arrogant knight and thousands of fanatical citizens that the Ellsworth children aren't an evil that must be destroyed?Told in the tradition of classics like The Chronicles of Narnia and The Neverending Story, The Goldenwealth Light is the first book in a fun-filled romp through the unique realm of the Traveler of Ord, weaving high adventure and deadly intrigue in a fanciful tapestry that will keep readers from ages ten to adult turning pages for hours.

Life is pretty uneventful for Olly. Apart from when he comes up against a pregnant panther with an appetite for pizza, a dangerous criminal with an extravagant wardrobe, a friendly femme fatale with a need for speed, a defective detective with a limited understanding of French, diamond geezers with a dubious sense of adventure and a whole bunch of other colourful characters in this seriously twisted, yet light-hearted romantic romp.A bedtime story so far-fetched and made-up, you won’t believe a single word of it.True? Maybe. Ridiculous? Definitely.
