A press release from Jeanne Chybik of Medallion Press:
Medallion Press is happy to present The White Fox, the first offering in our new YA-YA series, which stands for “Young Adults writing for Young Adults,” and showcases aspiring authors between the ages of twelve and nineteen.
We would like to shine the spotlight on our first talented young writer, nineteen-year-old James Bartholomeusz, who hails from Hertfordshire, England. His very first novel, The White Fox, is an epic fantasy tale with action and deep social undertones similar to The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe.
“By all accounts, Jack Lawson was a normal British teenager. He had few friends, no love life, and a horde of embittered teachers who seemed to be after his blood on a regular basis. In his Birchford home, a centuries old overflow prison–turned–orphanage, life was excruciatingly mundane.
“Then came the Cult of Dionysus, a sect of sorcerers at the head of an encroaching Darkness.
“Then an old friend back from the dead.
“And then the white fox.
“Suddenly life wasn’t so mundane anymore.”
The 440-page The White Fox will be released as a $9.95 paperback in December.
