Wayman Publishing has just signed author Jaimie M. Engle and will be publishing her debut novel, Clifton Chase and the Arrow of Light, September 1st, 2013. It is a historical middle grade fantasy novel that takes place during the time of King Richard III.
“It's quite fortuitous timing,” says Elisa Hirsch, an editor at Wayman Publishing, “since the skull of King Richard III was discovered and verified in February of this year. Engle's writing is rich. Children will learn about history while discovering an exciting tale that not only includes ancient kings and princes, but has dragons, dwarfs and talking mermaids as well.”
About the book:
How could Clifton Chase have known that the mysterious arrow he found in his closet in Melbourne, Florida was a magical portal to a different time and place? Thrust into an adventure, Clifton must evade the King’s army, rescue two princes from a heavily guarded tower, escape the fierce fires of a Crestback Dragon, outsmart the Mer King, and get the girl, all the while protecting the Arrow of Light. But, his journey isn’t over yet. Clifton needs to discover the arrow’s purpose for choosing him. And when he does, he must decide if he is willing to risk his life for the lives of others.View the Official Book Trailer at:

From the novel:
"You must take it," Edward said, as he
shoved the glowing shaft toward Clifton's
chest. "If my uncle gets this arrow in his hands, the entire kingdom will
be in danger. It will remain safe with you, in your world."
"But, I'm just an ordinary boy," Clifton said. "This
isn't my problem."
Edward stepped closer, his face no longer resembling a
boy of Clifton's
age, but for the first time he looked like a king. "You are the one, Clifton. The arrow has
chosen you."
