Dark Curses and Faerie Dreams

First off, you need to know that "Dark Curses and Faerie Dreams" is an eBook for young readers like no other. We call it a Multimedia eBook. This means there are links throughout the eBook that will take you to secret web pages filled with EshChallenges, EshSecrets, wondrous illustrations, rich animations, EshProfiles of many of the characters, interesting side stories, and much more.

And, to make your reading experience even more interesting, not all the links in the eBook are obvious. Oh no, that would be boring! Instead, many of the links are hidden and some simply do not exist. Eshmagick Storyers will need to look for EshClues in other places on the internet to find them. Where on the internet? Only clever Storyers will be able to find them!

At the heart of this one-of-a-kind Multimedia eBook is a great Story! Duggan McDuggan, age 14, knows it is a big mistake to tempt the fates and risk the darkest curse ever created. For one thing, the crazy plan to capture a Faerie is coming from none other than Zagger Dunleavy, the biggest conniver around. For another thing, no one in a hundred years has dared to risk the curse, it's that bad. Still, Duggan has a coward's reputation in her village, and so she is tempted to prove everyone wrong by throwing caution to the wind and daring the unthinkable.

Too bad for Duggan that nothing goes as planned! When Duggan and her friends harm a Faerie while trying to catch it, the Dark Curse falls on them, threatening to destroy all they love unless they can find a way to lift the curse. Their only hope? Duggan and her friends must undertake a desperate journey. Their first task is to find a crazy Witch who just might know how to help them. After that, they will need to travel deep into the Magickal realm of the Faeries to face the conjurer of the Dark Curse, an evil Faerie Lord who hates all living things.

On their journey, Duggan and her friends face dangers galore as they travel to Eshmagick, a strange land with strange creatures and strange things growing everywhere. Once there, Duggan quickly learns that being in Eshmagick will have some peculiar effects on her. What kinds of effects? Well, some are good, some are bad, and others ... well, let's just say other effects are rather surprising! The odds are against them. Facing all kinds of obstacles, Duggan and her friends will need to find the courage and resourcefulness they need.

If you are even half as smart and resourceful as Duggan and her friends, you just might find the world behind the Story, somewhere on the internet waiting for discovery by Storyers who have the eBook.

Oh, some words of warning: It is the nature of the internet that things change. Web pages may suddenly appear. Or they may change. Or disappear. That's part of the adventure! So, this is your invitation.
