Foley brews up a magical potion for fantasy readers of all ages!\n\nTake a dash of Harry Potter and a splash of Oliver Twist, add a pinch of steampunk and a sprinkle of Victorian fairy lore, and what do you get? The Gryphon Chronicles! A rollicking fantasy adventure series that's as much fun for grownups as it is for kids.\n\nA very special Gryphon Chronicles story, for all those who love A Christmas Carol and savor the joys and traditions of a Victorian Christmas.\n\nPeace on Earth, Goodwill to Men...and Gingerbread Men?!\nAfter his harsh beginnings as a rough-and-tumble orphan on the streets of Victorian London, Jake Everton, the twelve-year-old Lord Griffon, takes his rightful place as the long-lost heir of an aristocratic family with magical powers - his personal quest, to follow in his slain parents' footsteps as a Lightrider in the age-old battle of good versus evil. In the fantastical nooks and crannies of the Victorian Age, Jake and his friends (including his pet Gryphon) find no shortage of adventure - righting magic-related wrongs, solving supernatural mysteries, and exploring wondrous new worlds. Now it's Jake's first Christmas with his eccentric magical relatives...but trouble never takes a holiday.\n\nSanta's Horrid Little Helper\nHumbug hates being a Christmas elf. Instead of making toys, he'd rather make mischief. Angling for a new job in Halloween Town, he sets out to prove he's frightful enough for the post by ruining Christmas for as many people as possible - until Jake and his friends manage to capture the little troublemaker, determined to put a stop to his devious schemes.\n\nWhen the kids find out that Santa is offering a reward of 'One Christmas Wish Granted' for the safe return of his runaway elf, the gang sets out on a rip-roaring, snowbound adventure to the North Pole to hand Humbug over and collect the bounty. But the way is fraught with danger, leaving Jake and his pals to wonder if they'll make it home in time for Christmas - or if they'll even make it back alive!\n\n(This book can stand alone without having read the rest of the series.)\n\nThe Gryphon Chronicles Series:\n1) THE LOST HEIR\n2) JAKE \u0026amp; THE GIANT\n3) THE DARK PORTAL\n3.5) THE GINGERBREAD WARS\n4) RISE OF ALLIES\n5) SECRETS OF THE DEEP\n6) THE BLACK FORTRESS\n7) THE DRAGON LORD\n8) THE SORCERER'S ARMY\n9) THE DEVIL'S LAIR\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1946923222\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1946923222.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Foley, E.G.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
