Fireboy, my middle-grade/YA modern-day fantasy from Shadowpaw Press, now has a book trailer. Here it is:
“I knew things were getting weird when I saw my best friend’s face in the campfire. I didn’t realize how weird until the campfire followed me home . . .”
Thirteen-year-old Samantha “Sam” MacReady is nervous about the start of Grade 8, especially science class. Last year, her Grade 7 science class mysteriously disappeared on the way to a field trip she missed. When her best friend, Lorenzo, who no one has seen since he got on that bus, suddenly appears in a campfire, she teams up with Meg LeBlanc, the sole student survivor of “The Tragedy,” to find out what really happened that day.
Fireboy is a finalist for Best YA Novel in the 2026 High Plains International Book Awards and for Best Young Adult Novel in the 2026 Aurora Awards, and a nominee for the 2027 Manitoba Young Readers’ Choice Awards (Northern Lights).
You can buy it from Shadowpaw Press in trade paperback ($22.99) or EPUB ($6.99), from Amazon.ca or Amazon.com, or order it from your local bookstore or library. You can also read the first two chapters on the Fireboy page.
