The Magician's Dream, Oona Crate Book 3 now available!

The third book in the Edgar and Agatha Award nominated Oona Crate Mystery series is now available as an eBook!  THE MAGICIAN'S DREAM.It is available here: Amazon.com

Yes, the printed version was set to be released back in June, but as some of you may have heard, my American publishers at Egmont USA closed their doors shortly before the book was to be released.  Because of this, all rights returned to me.

I am currently looking into different distribution possibilities for a printed version, but there is a lot involved, and I figured since the book was already edited and ready for print, I should go ahead and release the eBook for all of you Oona fans out there waiting to find out what is happening with all of your Dark Street friends...and foes.

There's plenty of magic in this one–much more than in the previous two books–as Oona comes to terms with her innate powers...and also much more Samuligan (for those faerie fans out there)!  This is my favorite of the three books, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it.  

And please share this post, and help get Oona's magical story out to the world! Thanks so much. 

Cheers
Shawn Thomas Odyssey.

SummaryCody Wood just wants Christine DuPont to notice him, but his tongue-tied speech impediment and uncontrollable nerves keep getting in the way, not to mention Christine's clear interest in the mysterious new boy at school. When the opportunity to go on a daring night adventure with Christine arises, Cody jumps at the chance, despite his misgivings about their guide: Christine's delinquent older brother, Rosco.Joined by Morbid - Cody's Goth-girl, vampire infatuated twin sister - the four teens are thrust into the center of a vast conspiracy, a web of deception that drives them ever deeper into the world's most deadly building. And a question: what does it all have to do with the new boy, the mysterious Simon Crow? Curiosity turns to panic as the foursome struggle to escape the building's societal keepers and the seemingly endless labyrinth of hallways and rooms...and the fantastic curiosities that dwell within the chilling darkness of the Monster Society.

I WILL BE YOUR FRIEND (music video)


Here's the music video for my new song: "I Will Be Your Friend."  The chorus to the song came to me one day when I was making breakfast.  The next morning I found myself singing it again, and the following morning as well.  I decided the rest of the song needed be written, and here it is, complete with interstellar video.  Hope you enjoy and share!
