Not a typical storybook hero: Journey in to Azra's Pith
Over the years I learned that the insecurities I carried around were a waste of time. I still prefer a football game to a manicure any day of the week. That indispensable imagination has found its way into my writing providing a sense of joy and a true purpose.
And who is Alexander Drake:
Journey in to Azra's Pith
Alexander Drake is not a typical “story book” hero.
He’s awkward, insecure and introverted. His struggle to make friends has made
him a bit of a loner. He is fearful of not living up to his conservative
father’s expectations of him; and does his best to make him proud. At the same
time Alexander is a curious and wildly imaginative boy who constantly craves
adventure.
Up to this point Alexander led a very sheltered
life. He was raised solely by his father, a reserved distinguished gentleman
with a rarely exposed soft side. His mother died when he was baby, and he has
no memory of her. Secrets of his family’s extraordinary past were intentionally
kept from him; which has sparked his curious nature even more.
Alexander wants nothing more than to know where he came
from; more specifically, his mother. The opportunity finally presents itself
during a stay at his grandmother’s cottage deep in the forest. His father’s
childhood bedroom contained some interesting clues and a special key that set
Alexander on a journey that would change his life forever.
Azra’s Pith is a child’s imagination brought to
life. Enchanted spells roam the forest where Julien, a peaceful Empyrean wizard
lives. A deep river flows through the realm containing run off from the snowy
mountains looming in the distance.
That is where an element of unspeakable evil dwells
unsettled – a sorcerer named Imperius. Alexander is oblivious of his own
significance in Azra’s Pith. He is a threat to Imperius’s powers and its plans
to control the realm, and therefore must be destroyed.
Alexander was being hunted by dark spells and
vicious creatures every step of the way, but he was determined to complete his
journey. His destination held the answers he longed for; and a surprise that
was beyond his wildest dreams.
You can find Alexander in these books:

It all started with a stay at his grandmother’s cottage. Alexander found strange clues tucked away in his father’s old bedroom. With a mysterious key and several maps in his pack he set off on an innocent search for answers about his family.
When he discovered a secret passageway the search took a dramatic turn. He suddenly worried about what was searching for him. Alexander was being hunted by a sorcerer from his father’s past. Answers lead to more questions and the journey of his life.
