Old-World English Fantasy Collides with Modern Day Culture in New Fiction Novel
William Thon has released 'The Cottage,' the first book in his new fantasy collection
GRANADA HILLS, Calif., July 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Author William Thon takes readers through a fantastical adventure in his debut book "The Cottage." Taking place in Kent, England, Thon brings to life an old-world English setting, quirky characters, some of which are part of the LGBTQ community, and the importance of environment conservation and endangered species.
In "The Cottage," Porius, an ancient wizard and naturalist, joins forces with mystical families and heroes. Together they work and battle to preserve the natural world against the rapid growth of mankind. Through their journey, they discover ancient relics, magical spells, unusual places and mystical creatures. Ultimately, these eccentric characters' goal is to protect and make a better future for planet earth.
After researching his own family history that traced back to England, Thon was inspired to create characters based off his findings and himself. Throughout the book, readers will be captivated by the magical plot written in an old-world style with a modern twist.
"I work in the medical field and during the pandemic after working long hours, going home and writing 'The Cottage' was my escape from the chaos and uncertainty," said Thon. "I am currently in the works of writing the sequel."
"No matter what your literary tastes are, The Cottage will not disappoint. Bill Thon's beautifully written pros will prompt an emotional response right from the very beginning. With a great mix of history, drama, comedy and magic, you will laugh, cry, get angry, and feel prompted to action as the social commentary hits close to home. Ready for a wild adventure this summer? Go to The Cottage, open the door and embrace the magic!" ̶ Amazon Reviewer
