I received a very interesting e-mail about a book series that I have some how missed. I don't expect to know every book that comes out, but this one seems right up my alley and I haven't ever seen it in a book store. Hmmm...
The book series is called The Marvelous World Saga and it's written by Troy CLE. The first book, The Marvelous Effect, was first published in 2007 and has even won awards! Just read this blurb:
Louis Proof is an ordinary kid.
He loves listening to hip-hop, racing radio-controlled cars, and hanging out with his best friend, Brandon. Then a mysterious letter invites him to visit the local junkyard. There he finds a secret, underground amusement park like no other in existence. This is the best day of Louis's life. The park even has the most amazing race course for radio-controlled cars. Louis starts racing right away. It's a close contest; he's about to activate his nitro boost to take the lead, when...
This is the worst day of Louis's life. Without warning or reason, thirteen-year-old Louis Proof falls into a coma due to a virus of a mysterious, celestial origin. When he awakens three months later, the world that he once knew and loved is totally out of control. He will learn that his illness is connected to everything that is wrong, and that it's not only his responsibility but his destiny to set things right.
This story is a megadramatic, remarkably true, super action fantasy. Get ready!

How awesome does that sound? There's even a trailer for it!
That sounds fascinating to me! This is a different kind of fantasy novel and, I don't know about you, but now that this is on my radar, I'm hoping to read it ASAP.
