The Great and Many Books of Glenn Gaslin. Behold!
The Sorcerer From California—A Moko & Zaya Adventure
California kid Moko spends his days quietly doodling monsters and exploring the beach on his bike. Until an unexpected gift sends him on a harrowing adventure! He soon finds himself transported, though his dreams, to a world filled with danger, magic and really strange creatures.
The place is as real as his hometown of Oso Beach, and here Moko meets fat flying ladies, morphing mud creatures and a mischievous cyclops named Chuck. But can he save their fragile isle from a shadowy invader and her flying fortress?
And why is that annoying girl Zaya from his karate class here, too?
As their dreams begin to merge, two kids from a sleepy beach town must master a strange world’s magic and defeat the shape-shifting menace known as Mafibious. But are they too late?
Find out, as the adventures of Moko and Zaya begin!
