PeekAbook: The Brimstone Key

The Brimstone Key
Grey Griffins: The Clockwork Chronicles #1:
by Derek Benz and Jon S. Lewis
Just released: June 7, 2010

Description from the amazon:
A brand new adventure starring The Grey Griffins!
Max---the leader
Natalia---the brains
Ernie---the changeling
Harley---the muscle

A year ago, the Grey Griffins were just regular kids from Avalon, Minnesota. That was before they learned about the existence of evil fairies, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night. Now they are monster-hunters, celebrated heroes, and allies to the legendary Templar knights---but even heroes have to go to school.

When the Griffins enroll at Iron Bridge Academy, a school to train young recruits in the fight against the forces of evil, they find themselves at the center of a whole new adventure. The Clockwork King, a Templar foe from days past, has returned to finish the plan he set in motion decades ago. A plot to steal the souls of changelings---humans infused with fairy blood and supernatural abilities---in order to power his army of clockwork war machines.

In The Brimstone Key, authors Derek Benz and J.S. Lewis deftly blend the mystical wonder of steampunk with magic and adventure to create an action-packed thrill ride.

  1. I actually really like the Natalia & Brooke one, but since you posted that here, I'll also mention my second favorite which was Spriggan.

  5. They're all amazing - especially COLT AND THE A.R.C. ANGEL! The play of colors and lights/darks make these posters beautiful. I also kinda liked the one called Clocks (or clockwork? - already forgot lol).

  9. Oh, this sounds like such an exciting start for a new series!!
    And seriously, how cool is that you grow up to actually co-write with your best friend?

    I think my fave poster is either the "United We Stand" or "The Changelings".
