What To Read After Harry Potter-English Fantasy
HOW A CLASS OF 11 YEAR OLD MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS IN ARKANSAS FOUND THE
NEXT 'HARRY POTTER-LIKE' MAGICAL SERIES TO LOVE...
STILL LOOKING FOR THAT SPECIAL MAGICAL SERIES TO FILL THE GAP LEFT BY
THE END OF THE HARRY POTTER BOOKS?
LOOK NO MORE...YOU'VE FOUND IT!
THE PERSEPHANE PENDRAKE CHRONICLES
DEAR FANTASY FICTION FAN:
It's been two years since the last Harry Potter book was released
and many of you are still looking for that next special fantasy
fiction book series to grab onto and follow..._TO FEEL THE PASSION OF
A SERIES YOU CAN TRULY LOVE AND LIVE IN ANTICIPATION..WAITING FOR THE
NEXT BOOK TO COME OUT_
The Persephane Pendrake Chronicles is being touted as _THE_ next
magical series to rock the reading world.
_HERE'S WHY....._
Persephane Pendrake, or Persy as she prefers to be called, is
without a question, a very talented young witch. But now, as she
closes in on her thirteenth birthday, her powers seem to be
changing...evolving and growing at an unruly speed.
All of her life she's been made to keep her abilities under the
proverbial 'black hat'. Her parents James and Angelica fear their
lives being turned into a three ringed circus if the public at large
find out they are Magical Folk.
After an incident at school incenses her to the point of allowing
one of her little 'abilities' to slip out and be observed, Persy's
life becomes a cascade of weird events. A fairy pleads for her help
and a large bear tells her that her destiny is about to start
unfolding, beginning with her first experience with the Time-Linx!
It's after this that she and her familiar Benson (a _VERY_ cheeky
dragonfly) meet Thaddeus, a wizard and his sidekick P-C (a 'not so
brave' dragon).
These four get the shock of their lives, when it's revealed that
their actual destiny together includes a dark, dangerous and on the
surface - nearly impossible task.
They must stop the cold and evil Melanthios from collecting nine
magical objects and becoming the "All Powerful One" which would allow
her and her demonic minions to rule our planet in darkness and Black
Magic.
Eight More Books..(at Least) To Come...
_NINE BOOKS....THREE TRILOGIES._ Each trilogy takes place in a
different magical time.
WHAT MAKES THIS ENGLISH FANTASY-MAGIC SERIES SO GREAT?
* Every page is filled with fast-paced tension and action...keeping
those pages flying!
* Each book tells the tale of Melanthios' attempt to capture the
next Magical Object she needs and Persy and the gang's rising to the
challenge to thwart her.
* Benson speaks in a funny and puzzling language of his
own.._CRS_..and we teach you to do the same..
* In order to get through The Forest of Depravation, our heroes have
to answer puzzles and quizzes. See if you can beat them to the
answers!
* Biddy Mayfair, a nosy neighbour is forever gossiping about Persy
and her 'strange' ways. We normally keep her out of the books...but
her musings can be found at Persy's first site
PERSY AND THADDEUS ARE KIDS...JUST LIKE YOU...EXCEPT..AH..HMMM..
* They can do magic..big time
* They travel through time and space in the Time-Linx
* They have at their sides a hoard of Magical Folk
* They are about to save the world..._WE HOPE!_

HE FOUND THE NEXT FANTASY FICTION SERIES TO FOLLOW...THE PERSEPHANE
PENDRAKE CHRONICLES....
_5.0 OUT OF 5 STARS.._ SPELLBINDINGLY GOOD!,...June 11, 2009
"Ever since J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books took the publishing
world by storm in the late 1990's, the literary market has been
flooded with an endless parade of Harry Potter knock offs.
A whole generation of authors have been inspired to create their own
books featuring teenage wizards and witches all striving to save the
world from the usual forces of evil. Though most of these books have
been largely unsuccessful, there have been a few that have shined.
Enter Persephane Pendrake and the Cimaruta by Lady Ellen. Unlike
Harry Potter who is a wizard, Persephane Pendrake and the Cimaruta
features a teenage witch as its protagonist and thankfully steers
clear of Harry Potterisms that would otherwise contaminate and dilute
what is a quite original and engaging story.
A chief element of this book is its peculiar use of time-travel,
called Time-Linxing. Through Time-Linxing, Persephane is able to
confront her enemies at various points throughout history making for a
thrilling and utterly breathtaking tale.
Upon discovering that she is the chosen one destined to stop the
evil "All Powerful One" from plunging the world into eternal darkness,
Persephane Pendrake is thrust into the center of the timeless conflict
between good and evil.
When Persephane turns thirteen, the age in which her incredible
magical powers start to mature, her evil aunt Melanthios, who seeks to
become the prophesied All Powerful One, decides to destroy her.
Through the aid of her loving family and friends, including her
loyal sidekick a witty, but overenthusiastically snark dragonfly named
Benson, Persephane takes up the challenge of facing Melanthios in a
series of life and death battles in which to thwart her wicked plans.
But Melanthios has other ideas for Persephane. If she can steal the
powerful amulet called the Cimaruta from Persephane, she will have the
first of 9 powerful magical items which must be collected to bequeath
her with the powers of the All Powerful One.
It is a desperate race throughout the world and history itself as
Melanthios and Persephane vie over the lost 9 magical objects. Will
Melanthios claim the Cimaruta from Persephane and begin her
transformation into the All Powerful One?
Or will Persephane find the strength and wisdom she needs to prevent
the approaching apocalypse? You'll have to read this book to find out.
As I said before, readers will be glad to know that Persephane
Pendrake and the Cimaruta is not some cheap imitation of Harry Potter.
Rather it occupies its own unique space in a genre that clearly needs
originality.
What truly distinguishes this book from Harry Potter is its milieu
which seems to be steeped in Wicca and folklore as opposed to
Rowling's more romanticized version of witchcraft and wizardry.
Unlike Harry who is an orphan, Persephane is surrounded by a coterie
of loving and supportive folk, all who are necessary to prepare her
for the trials she is going to endure over the course of this series
as she takes on the challenge of saving the world from her malevolent
aunt Melanthios and her minions.
I highly recommend this book to older children and young adults who
are looking for the next great fantasy story. Persephane Pendrake and
the Cimaruta is an excellent book that offers more magic within its
pages than any reader can imagine.
Without a doubt, this book is a success. I, for one, plan to read
the entire series until the very end."

_A Study Says That The Number Of Kids Reading Drastically Went Up
With Harry Potter...AND Their School Grades Improved.._
_DON'T LET THAT STOP...CONTINUE THE TREND WITH THE PERSEPHANE
PENDRAKE CHRONICLES..._
"A study done by Scholastic notes some intriguing statistics among
the kids of Harry Potter's world. Parents and kids both credit Potter
with getting kids to read for fun; just over half of the kids surveyed
said they neglected to do so before latching on to the series. Almost
two thirds – 65% - have noted improvements at school since they
started Rowling's works.
More important than grades, however, is the entire shift in attitude
towards reading. Previous surveys have found that children's reading
drops after the age of 8. The average Harry Potter reader, however,
start the series at 9 and continue to read – and reread – the
books as they get older."

_MORE ABOUT PERSY AND HER MAGIC BOOKS?_
Persy, Thaddeus, Benson and P-C are assisted by a highly adept,
scrying gypsy named Vadoma, a vampire with a rather warped sense of
humor - Count Pseudomorphius the Sanguine who is known as Murph...for
obvious reasons.
Not to be forgotten is the twelve member Magical Governing Council,
which Persy's grandmother Laurel is one of the lead members. Each
member specializes in a particular area of magic and all have a gift
to give our heroes to further enhance their chances against
Melanthios.
But is it enough? Melanthios is evil and heartless....and _VERY_
powerful...
As if she isn't enough to worry about...also on the dark side is a
slippery, loathsome Chinese Socerer...aiming to usurp Melanthios and
beat her at her own game..and along the way...dispose of Persy and her
crew!
Will this ever end? What chance does our team stand?
