LINDA’S MYSTERY OF THE MONTH FOR KIDS

From champion skier to award-winning film producer to first-time novelist!  Frank Beddor makes a fantastic debut with this first book, THE LOOKIING GLASS WARS, in an exciting trilogy that twists Alice in Wonderland in kaleidoscopic ways.  Find out the true story behind Lewis Carroll’s famous children’s story:  Alice — actually, Alyss — is the future Queen of Wonderland, but has tumbled through the Pool of Tears into Victorian England.  Her royal bodyguard, Hatter Madigan (known to Carroll’s readers as the Mad Hatter) rushes to her rescue. Meet the heroic, passionate, monstrous, vengeful heroes and villains of this parallel world as they battle each other with AD-52's and orb generators, navigate the Crystal Continuum, bet on jabberwock fights and travel across the Chessboard Desert. Soon to be a graphic novel, computer game and movie, this fantasy/adventure is exciting for boys and girls ages 10 and up, and will most decidedly be a must for grown-up collectors of fantasy fiction.
