Description:There is a place where every book you have ever read, every story you ever heard, really exists...want to go there?When nineteen-year-old Joshua Ridley inherits his grandfather's second-hand book business it proves to be the perfect escape from his extremely miserable home life, but little does he know how it will completely change his life.Aboard his grandfather's boat The Book Ark Josh discovers a portal to the Realms of Fiction, a place where every story that has ever been told really exists and librarians are the overseers: his grandfather being their leader.The Realms of Fiction are in crisis as eBook technology threatens its existence. Ironically, it is Josh's evil grandmother who is the driving force behind this growing eBook phenomenon, and the family IT business he has fled.As Josh discovers that his grandfather may not be dead after all, but kidnapped, he enlists the help of a host of fictional characters and sets out to rescue him. With law enforcing keepers on their tail, and run-ins with the dread sniffers, Josh finds himself caught up in a fantastical adventure across the realms. A war between the Inklings and the Inkless looms, a war feared to be greater than the Scribing Wars of ancient times and time is running out for Josh and his new-found friends, but if Josh can find his grandfather there may be hope for the Realms of Fiction.It is a story of new versus old; it is a story of books, but most of all it is the story of a boy who really misses his grandad.-------------"A Once Upon A Time story that will enchant all book-lovers from ages nine to ninety. This is the sort of story that us old-hand bookworms used to enjoy under the bed-covers by the light of a torch; it will enthrall young new-timers and keep them glued to their e-readers.""The concept is brilliant, the writing is superb, and the characters are real - well of course they are! Whether we are readers or writers (or both!), we all know that, like stepping through the back of a wardrobe, opening a book transports us into that very real world of imagination, where belief is suspended and fantastic things happen... Prepare to be transported!""In Janis Pegrum Smith's talented gift for story-telling, Roald Dahl's magical tales and Phillip Pullman's believable alternative existences have met a very serious rival. If you are stuck for an imaginative gift for adults or younger readers, give them a copy of The Book Ark - it is destined to become a long-lasting classic to treasure!"Helen Hollick - Author The Pendragon's Banner Trilogy, The Saxon Series, The Sea Witch Series.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
