When an orphan boy comes into contact with wizards and learns of his own magic, he --- and life as he knows it --- is changed forever. That tale might sound familiar, but it’s quite different from any other “boy-meets-wizard” story you’ve heard before. Sage Blackwood’s JINX does tell a coming-of-age journey, involving a tween boy who discovers his magical powers. At the same time, JINX delves into the realms of fairy tales, magic, wizards and more, complete with a relatable and courageous hero and an excellent supporting cast. Read More

What is more dangerous --- life on the path or off?

What is more dangerous --- life on the path or off?
About the Book
In the Urwald, you don't step off the path. Trolls, werewolves, and butter churn --- riding witches lurk amid the clawing branches, eager to swoop up the unwary. Jinx has always feared leaving the path --- then he meets the wizard Simon Magnus.
Jinx knows that wizards are evil. But Simon's kitchen is cozy, and he seems cranky rather than wicked. Staying with him appears to be Jinx's safest, and perhaps only, option. As Jinx's curiosity about magic grows, he learns to listen to the trees as closely as he does to Simon's unusual visitors. The more Jinx discovers, the more determined he becomes to explore beyond the security of well-trodden paths.
But in the Urwald, a little healthy fear is never out of place, for magic --- and magicians --- can be as dangerous as the forest. And soon Jinx must decide which is the greater threat.
Sage Blackwood introduces a daring new hero for an innovative new world as Jinx is joined by friends, battles enemies, and discovers that life beyond --- and even within --- the forest is more complex than he can imagine, and that the Urwald itself needs him more than he could ever guess.
