Synopsis "The New Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn (Adult Edition)"
TOM AND HUCK HAVE REINCARNATED AS TWIN WHITE CATS ...... and they're now familiars for a modern-day witch-and, of course, they want to be boys again! This whimsical novel by Lisa Mannetti captures the flavor of Twain's writing, yet brings Tom and Huck to life in a contemporary framework that is utterly delightful! The Introduction was written by NY Times best-selling author Jonathan Maberry.AN EXCERPTHuck always said it was a powerful lot of trouble to write a book, and if he'd a known it ahead of time, he wouldn't have gone through with it. That's his version of the truth, anyhow. And it's a lot more work than anyone bargains for when they sit down to write-but you add writin along with me and Huck comin back as twin brothers and the feline familiars of a twenty-first century witch-and you got even more trouble. A whole cauldron-full more. Anyhow, this time I guess it's me that has got to tell our story.REVIEWS "With charming Twain-like wit and style, Lisa Mannetti brings to life an engaging tale that will capture readers' imaginations and take them on the magical ride of their lives. Who wouldn't love feline familiars such as Huck and Tom? I can't recommend this book enough!" -- Elizabeth Massie, Bram Stoker-winning author of Sineater, Playback, and Homegrown "If you're a fan of Twain, it's a must-read.
