On The Table Read, “the best book magazine in the UK“, author R.L. Baxter releases new YA fantasy, Blue Lunar & The Apex Grail, about a teenage boy taking on a powerful sorcerer.
Author R.L. Baxter’s fascination with ancient civilisations and beliefs that pre-date the conventional wisdoms of today, fuels his new YA adventure, Blue Lunar & The Apex Grail. This standout fantasy adventure will mesmerise its 12 to 18-year old readership.
Innocent and kind-hearted Luke is a pure soul with an open heart, who takes on powerful sorcerer searching for an ancient relic after emerging from 100 years of imprisonment. When Luke embraces his destiny and embarks on a mission to destroy the evil wizard, truths and tragedy from the past come to the fore. Armed with his discovery, Luke begins to appreciate that nobody, including the sorcerer, is inherently bad.
Youngsters will lose themselves in this world of gods, goddesses, and power struggles, and R.L. Baxter explores the belief that nobody is fundamentally a bad person, but it is circumstances that make them behave as they do.
R.L. Baxter’s passion for fantasy fiction further benefits from his detailed knowledge and interest in societies and artefacts lost to history.
In a world where the gods have long deserted mortals, a powerful sorcerer emerges from a 100-year-old prison. Releasing an army of beasts, he enters a path of destruction while searching for an ancient relic.
Tasked with challenging the darkness, a pure and naive-hearted boy named Luke embraces his destiny to defeat the wizard – for the promise of a better tomorrow.
Equipped with a divine armour, fashioned by the most powerful goddess, Luke will journey across the land in pursuit of the dark sorcerer, making unforgettable allies and bonds along the way. However, as a long-buried tragedy slowly comes to light, the boy will question everything he believes in… including his destiny.
“Originally from London, I used to work for places like the British Museum and then the National Gallery, which attracted a whole host of people. I was inspired by meeting people from various parts of the world who were touched by art or ancient artifacts. As such, Blue Lunar and the Apex Grail celebrates this in many ways.”
