phantasmic scrolls

When Rupert Blacklock was four years old, he came face to face with death-a snarling, clawing zombie, ready to drag him into the abyss. He was saved by an elder witch whose magic destroyed the creature. But terror left its mark.

Now eleven, Rupert is a ghost hunter. He studies the supernatural, hoping to uncover the truth about what happened that night-and why.

On Halloween, he sneaks into a forgotten graveyard, determined to find proof of the living dead. But the graves stay quiet. No ghosts. No zombies.

Something worse is watching.

A vampire lurks in the shadows, its crimson eyes gleaming with hunger. And this one doesn’t just want blood-it wants something far more terrible: the souls of Earth’s children.

Rupert isn’t alone. A secret group of witches and wizards-The Order of Genesis-has been watching him too. They believe he may be the one foretold in the Prophecy of Whimsy Fickle: a legendary boy wizard who will stand against the darkness.

Rupert might be that hero.

If he’s brave enough to believe it.
