PILLYWIGGIN: The Lost Shadow Boys is one of those stories that grabs you right away and doesn't let go. It takes you deep into the Mantelrealm, where Jayce and a group of fairy boys are stuck working for a wicked witch in a blazing hot mine. They can't even use their wings because of the heat, but they don't give up. Instead, they come up with clever ways to survive, building gadgets and holding onto the dream of escaping.

The world-building is absolutely amazing. From dragons guarding the mines to the eerie Oddizens watching their every move, everything feels vivid and exciting. And then there's the prophecy about a girl who's supposed to save them, but it's been so long that no one believes in it anymore. The only glimmer of hope is Tashuhunka-the one boy who escaped and secretly helps them from the outside, keeping the tension high.

This book really stands out because it's not just about magic or adventure; it's about courage, hope, and sticking together no matter what. If you're into stories with heart and imagination, this one's a must-read Review by Abhishek Roy

"Pillywiggin: The Lost Shadow Boys by Debbie Bishop strikes a perfect balance between the fantastical and the relatable, making it both enjoyable and profoundly meaningful." LITERARY TITAN

Pillywiggin: The Lost Shadow Boys by Debbie Bishop strikes a perfect balance between the fantastical and the relatable, making it both enjoyable and profoundly meaningful. The young protagonists, despite their age, bear the weighty responsibilities and challenges typically associated with adulthood. This stark contrast between their youth and the burdens they carry evokes a deep sense of empathy. Their struggles with loss, responsibility, and survival in an unforgiving world mirror the real-life challenges many young people face today, who are forced to mature too quickly. This unexpected depth adds a compelling layer to the story, transforming it into more than just a fantastical escape. The language used in the book is highly accessible, broadening its appeal to readers as young as twelve. Though firmly within the fantasy genre, the plot remains easy to follow. This accessibility is particularly evident in how Bishop introduces and develops the story's prophecy..." Literary Titan reviewer

The story is full of action-packed scenes and vivid descriptions...The author's writing style is both engaging and vivid, bringing the enchanting and mysterious world to life with clear, imaginative prose. The author's creativity is exceptional, creating a fantastical realm that feels both magical and tangible. There is nothing I didn't like about the book. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. One of the book's strongest qualities is its suspenseful moments. The author does an excellent job bringing in tension, making you feel like you're right there with the characters. I recommend the book to fans of fantasy adventures and suspenseful stories." review - EBERE WRITES COCEPT
