Publisher's Description of Jack Zulu and the Girl with Golden Wings by S. D. Smith
A world in the balance. A boy with a fateful choice. A girl with golden wings.
Jack
Zulu explores a new realm in this fantastic adventure that stretches
beyond Earth and into a world on the edge of destruction. Jack must
search for answers about his fallen father’s story and risk everything
to save the cause at the lost city of gold.
Take your fantasy adventures into new realms with this
up-and-coming series from S.D. Smith and his son. Jack is not a typical kid
growing up in rural America during the 1980s. Rather, as a 12-year-old half-Appalachian,
half-African young man dealing with real life struggles, he desperately wants to
escape. In Waylander’s Key, a local book seller introduces Jack to a
magical city hidden between twelve realms. Fantastic adventures with exciting
new characters ensue in this new series developed in the tradition of Tolkien
and Lewis, as well as Spielberg and Lucas. In the battles between good and
evil, family values and Christian themes are embraced.
