Sneak Peak of what’s to come: The Septavalent Stone

Sneak Peak:

The Septavalent Stone
By J.O. Jones

(synopsis)

Mrs. Ama never told Andrew that she was a renowned witch or that his uncle was a retired magical salesman who traded contraband dark magical objects. If she had, he would have known that:

1. Travelling to his uncle’s house to stay for a few weeks was a bad idea, and,

2. Forgetting to search his box before leaving the house in case anything sinister found its way into it was also a bad idea.

Instead, Andrew has to learn about his uncle the hard way as strange things begin to happen around him. As the medical schools in Africa grow worse academically, Andrew transfers to Norgads University in Ukraine where a group of fellow nephews-and-kids of mystic parentage have mysteriously convened, unaware that he holds, in his box, an ancient relic that belongs to a very powerful being called an elder.

But just when he thinks he can settle down and finally study, he discovers the stone, and to make matters worse, his cousin, the wild and unpredictable Aloysia, arrives on her father’s orders to retrieve it. With a second war threatening to repeat itself between the two families, and the power of the stone causing the school cadavers to arise and attack the students, Andrew and Aloysia must put aside all differences, and team up to solve the mystery behind the stone which leads him to learn lesson number three:

3. There are some situations that two enemies cannot pass through together without becoming best friends.

  1. I saw this book on the writer’s blog, and i happened to read the first chapter. i would really love to see what he has to offer, plus the cover is really intriguing. It must be about either some African or Arabian kind of magic, the ethereal animals are just wicked.

  2. Nice synopsis..Good work..,keep it coming and I hope to see more of you work..

  3. I’ve read a couple of his blog posts, will go and check the first chapter on the blog asap, hillarious things he’s got there, the blog posts i mean, hope the book is as good as the cover. NICE

  4. This is a really nice book if I had to judge from d sneak peak I would say it really aims at emcompassing alil bit of d African culture and a ukrainian flavour.
    Can’t wait to get ma copy.
