Fish & Sphinx
Wil and Sophie are back in their battle against the Serpent’s Chain! Cousins Wil Wychwood and Sophie Isidor unearth yet another dastardly scheme from this dangerous secret society. Now the Serpent’s Chain plans to seize the Manitoba Legislative Building – or The Palace of the Blazing Star, as it is known in MiddleGate. Catfysh, Spirit of the River, comes to help Sophie and Wil as they struggle to unlock the Palace’s hidden code and thwart its destruction. Tyndall stone sphinxes, cow skulls, lions, bison, and even Medusa herself spring to life, but will their magic be enough to help defeat the Serpent’s Chain once and for all?
The Kingdom of Trolls
Cousins Sophie and Wil certainly have their hands full. Wil’s old friend Mr. Bertram is blamed for the disappearance of a priceless manuscript and lands in jail, things are up in the air at Auntie Vi’s Fortune-Telling with a new competitor next door, Sophie and Wil have exams to study for, Aunt Rue doesn’t get the new job at the Secretariat after all, and their neighbour, Mrs. Oleander, falls deathly ill. But that’s not the half of it. When they travel with their eccentric fortune-telling aunt on a prize trip to Iceland sponsored by Perfect Products (purveyors of Aunt Violet’s beloved crystal ball), Wil and Sophie face danger and magic – galdur. They are even – not to give away too much – captured by trolls and almost end up in the soup du jour! Meanwhile, the Serpent’s Chain, an ancient secret society, will stop at nothing to reclaim Wil’s magical black medallion. Despite the danger to their own lives, Sophie and Wil struggle valiantly to learn more about the Chain, whose web of deceit, they discover, extends all the way to Iceland. In short – what a mess!
The Serpent's Spell
Unbeknownst to ten-year-old Wil Wychwood, he comes from a long line of mages. But with the death of his grandmother and his world upended, Wil moves to live with “the Aunts” and finds himself in MiddleGate – where buses drive through brick walls and leaning houses dot streets named Wog’s Hollow and Half Moon Lane. The four-hundred-and-ninety-four-year-old school, Gruffud’s Academy, is out of this world too. With classes in numeristics, botanicals, cartology and verbology, and textbooks like "Magykal Spelling, Grammar and Palaver," this is no ordinary school. Yet something dark brews beneath the veneer of this idyllic hidden city. When Wil and his cousin Sophie rescue the sacred snakes of Narcisse, they find themselves swept up in a dangerous plot. The secret society known as the Serpent’s Chain is on the loose, and Wil is carrying the very thing they’ve been searching for. "Beware the Serpent’s Chain," they were told, but what does that mean? What dangers await Wil and Sophie as they unravel this wicked mystery?
Good Night, Good Night, Victoria Beach
If a jackrabbit were to visit you at bedtime, would you follow it? Good Night, Good Night, Victoria Beach is inspired by a certain half-white, half-brown jackrabbit seen at dusk at Victoria Beach, Manitoba after a first snowfall. This abcedary follows adventurous jackrabbits-if you can spot them-along with their woodpecker, frog, toad, vole, geese, fish, bear, dragonfly, robin, mosquito, ant, chipmunk and hummingbird friends, as they cavort through the four seasons!
Amber Ambrosia
After saving the sacred snakes of Narcisse, Wil Wychwood and his cousin Sophie Isidor are hailed as the new heroes of MiddleGate. Yet their journey is far from over. Wil knows the black medallion he inherited once belonged to an ancient secret society, the Serpent’s Chain. But no one seems to know the story behind the medallion. The meaning of the black medallion with its silver arrow and five-pointed star isn’t the only mystery to be solved. The Serpent’s Chain is hardly finished with Wil, and they’ve returned with another nefarious scheme. Now, they’re after a magical honey from MiddleGate’s precious bees. Can Sophie and Wil stop their conspiracy and save the bees? Will they uncover the medallion’s true meaning, or will its secrets be lost to history?
