New Novel for Young Adults Conveys the Power of Positive Creativity The Sara Chronicles: Book One by new author L. Hughes is the beginning of never-ending possibilities for three orphans with special powers ALTUS, Okla. -- December 17, 2008 -- The Sara Chronicles: Book One is the first in a series of young adult fantasy novels by L. Hughes intended to pass on the positive message that it’s possible for children to accomplish anything – “especially if they have a good imagination,” says Hughes.In The Sara Chronicles, the main character Sara and two other orphan children are suddenly transported to a strange land and discover they possess special powers that will defeat the Garren, an evil group, and ultimately save the world. But Sara and the others, along with the help of the magical Keepers and its all-powerful leader, Olie, face many challenges and strange creatures during their mission.
“I really enjoy making new characters and creatures,” says Hughes. “I also try to keep the action going, taking the characters to different places and giving them challenges to overcome.”Hughes was inspired to write The Sara Chronicles by lackluster young adult novel options in the market and her 8-year-old daughter, Sara. “Sara loves to give me suggestions on how to expand her powers and defeat the enemy,” says Hughes. “… [And] I looked at some of the stuff available for kids and young adults, and sometimes it seems like they lack a certain special message. I just wanted to offer something positive.”Hughes reports that she has already completed the second book in The Sara Chronicles series and is working on the third.For more information or to request a free review copy, members of the press can contact the author at hugheslaurae@yahoo.com.
