Samuil and the Legendary Snow Owl

Step into the enchanting yet treacherous world of "Samuil and the Legendary Snow Owl," a pulse-pounding fantasy epic set in the 1840s. The story centers on P’etro Fedorchak, a courageous war hero who narrowly escapes the horrors of the Allies' Shadow War. Settling near the enchanted Black Sea with his beloved wife Ilia, he helps with the birth of their son, Samuil, in a cabin nestled against the haunted Southern Forest.

From birth, Samuil is surrounded by both wonder and danger. In the shadowy depths of the Southern Forest innocent creatures are being transformed into dangerous monsters that lurk in the darkness. Yet, amid this chaos, Samuil finds solace and companionship along the singing river, where he forges bonds with the unique wildlife that inhabits this magical land.

As the threat of the shadow monsters grows ever more intense, Samuil encounters an unexpected ally in Nikolai of the Caves—a quirky, time-traveling wizard and his loyal hound, Wolf Killer. Alongside his steadfast friends, Katya, Alonya and Teddy, Samuil embarks on an extraordinary quest that culminates in an exhilarating showdown on Devil’s Island. Here, courage will be tested, friendships forged, and destinies reclaimed.

This thrilling tale marks the beginning of an enthralling saga, with two sequels already in the works: "Samuil and the Dark Prince" and "Samuil and the Land of Broken Time." Each new upcoming installment promises to deepen the lore; expand the universe; increase the magic and take audiences into accelerating journeys filled with magic; adventure; mystery; suspense and the timeless struggle between light and darkness.

    "My hope is that my daughter and granddaughter meet you someday. This is their genre. When Cayli (now 20) was 4 she ordered fried rats and the waitress was disgusted. Cayli had to be human and not a dragon to eat at restaurants."
