The Casebook of Sir Pendleton Stormsnout: The Gypsy’s Gleaming Eye by Robert Feol

The Casebook of Sir Pendleton Stormsnout: The Gypsy’s Gleaming Eye by Robert Feol

“Sir Pendleton Stormsnout: Legendary Detective and Seeker of Adventure.”

So reads the sign that hangs by the entrance of the palatial estate that lies on the outskirts of the sleepy hamlet known as Mouseling Hollow. For most mice, hanging such a sign outside their place of business would be sheer arrogance – a sure sign that they were either puffed-up braggarts intoxicated with their own boastfulness, or vainglorious charlatans seeking to separate the innocent from their hard-earned coin.

But Pendleton Stormsnout is most certainly not ‘most mice.’ Far from it…

For Pendleton Stormsnout, the sign that hangs outside his stately manor house is merely a simple declaration of fact – for he is both a legendary detective, and a lifelong seeker of adventure. Over the course of many seasons, the tales of his exploits have spread far and wide throughout the entirety of King Teegan’s Far Collective. The rumors say that Pendleton Stormsnout is a prodigy – a virtuoso – a ‘renaissance mouse’ in the truest sense of the phrase. They say that his powers of observation and deduction are unparalleled. That he can out-think the most distinguished scholars from the University at Old Town, out-fight the greatest champions from the Black Baron’s infamous Arena, and out-drink the thirstiest scalawags in Captain Redfur Tumblefox’s fabled Wrecking Crew. Some even whisper that he sets a finer dinner table than his neighbor, the beloved chef and innkeeper Robert Teague.

When The Feldenspar Daily is granted a rare interview with the famous detective, it quickly dispatches a pair of journalists eager to learn the truth about Sir Pendleton Stormsnout. Is he really as sharp as they say? As learned? As daring? As sophisticated? Being no stranger to news stories that have been a bit…shall we say…exaggerated, the journalists arrive at his doorstep with two questions burning on their lips: has Sir Pendleton Stormsnout really done all the things he’s said to have done? And if so, what is the source of all his amazing abilities – how did he become the celebrated mouse that he is today?

As they question Stormsnout’s butler (and chronicler of sorts) Alfred, they will discover that the answers to their questions are both much greater – and far different – than they ever could have imagined…

Discover the answers for yourself in this, the first novella in the new Mouseling Hollow Chronicles series – featuring the origin story of Sir Pendleton Stormsnout, the breakout hit character from the internationally best-selling A Journey to Mouseling Hollow series!

Heirs of the Ancients by James Norwood

Heirs of the Ancients by James Norwood

The ancients waited and watched as the ages unfolded before them. They laid their trap in a desolate corner of the galaxy, waiting patiently like a spider, while countless stars, planets, and civilizations were born, thrived, and died out. In the fullness of time, a desperate race of beings, fleeing from their home, was ensnared in their cosmic web, setting into motion a thousand-year struggle for survival, revenge, and dominance.

Without imagining the peril that lay before them, they forged ahead. Their motives and plans blurred the reality of their growing and swiftly approaching doom. Imprisoned by their own greed, the D’lai unwittingly fed the starving ancients, who grew in power and strength, until the day would finally arrive when their dark, consuming plan could be fulfilled.

Haunted by their lust for power, and consumed by their passion for revenge, the D’lai swept into space and were utterly destroyed by their own arrogance. Despite their failure, an ember still smoldered, and finally, emboldened and possessed by the rage and malice of the ancients, they struck once more.

The ancient game, played out over billions of years, would once more consume the galaxy, and this time, should they succeed, no being alive or dead would remain untouched. The final plan was in place, and the D’lai, the heirs of the ancients, were on the move.

“Tucker exhibits mesmerizing story-telling skills in this heartfelt, honest story of love and betrayal…Fluid dialogue and a tightly formatted storyline set this novel aside in a refreshingly unique category all its own.” – Readers’ Favorite

“Tucker has delivered an evocative, poignant read that lovers of literary fiction won’t want to miss.” – The Prairies Book Review

Austin Nobel is preparing for a summer trip to France, which includes obtaining a passport. However, when she receives her birth certificate in the mail with the wrong name on it, Austin uncovers that she was adopted, something her parents had kept secret from everyone.

Austin pursues more information about her birth parents and their complicated history against the wishes of her family, while struggling with the impact this revelation has on her status within the Reform Jewish community. Is she really Jewish in the eyes of her community? In her own eyes? The support of a new romantic interest and an old family friend helps Austin find strength, resilience, and forgiveness as she searches for answers about her own origins and identity.

“Her thoughts, half-formed, tumbled over one another, nonsensical and overwhelming. Images of her parents, her mom mostly, flickered through her mind as a realization grew within her, rising from the pit of her stomach, finally forming the coherent thought that there were going to be repercussions for the conversation she’d just had with Jeremy. Her world would change—it had already, though she couldn’t yet feel it and couldn’t fathom what those changes might be. The foundation built of all she knew was shifting beneath her feet as she wobbled.”
