Synopsis

Silver, Wishing Shelf Book Awards!
Bronze, Readers' Favorite International Awards Contest!

America's future depends on Casey. Too bad he's got a little invisibility problem.

At Vintage Woods Middle School, he's always the new kid. Students look right through him—and they're not faking.

Casey Grimes doesn't know why he's mostly-invisible, but when he climbs a colossal oak, he discovers a fortress in its branches. The forgotten sentry tree marks the border between his safe, suburban life and a fierce frontier.

Casey and his little sister Gloria discover an alternate USA where monsters stalk the suburbs, forgotten magic waits in the woods and battles are as common as breakfast.

Three full-length novels and a novella in one volume. This 4-in-1 fantasy adventure is packed with action, courage, and of course, monsters.

The Mostly Invisible Boy (Casey Grimes #1)

Casey Grimes thinks his invisibility is permanent until he finds a secret forest society in charge of monster control. Now he's got a chance to belong—if he can stay alive long enough.

Trickery School (Casey Grimes #2)

Casey Grimes begins his studies at Trickery School, one of America's premier monster-control academies. But classes like Extreme Climbing and Land Creature Defense are the least of his worries. A mysterious enemy is after him. And they’re playing for keeps.

Crooked Castle (Casey Grimes #2.5)

When Brook, an orphan with a knack for survival, is dumped on a deadly island—by a beast that shouldn't exist—all she knows is she's far from her group home in Weed, California. And haunted by a past that stays just out of reach. This companion novel reveals hidden backstory and secrets that echo through the series.

The Ghost of CreepCat (Novella)

When Lila Banks decides to take a hike on her twelfth birthday, she doesn't expect to be stalked by the ghost of her recently-deceased cat. He was never very nice, but trying to eat her takes unlikable to a whole new level.

Highly rated for read-alouds, this middle grade fantasy adventure is bringing parents, grands and kids together, but watch out—grown-ups have been known to steal the books and read ahead.

The wit of Percy Jackson meets the creatures of Fablehaven—perfect for fans of Harry Potter's magical world-building. Over 250,000 copies sold worldwide. Compare: If you bought these books individually, you'd pay a minimum of $50. Ages 8–14.
