Upper elementary and middle grade fantasy is one of my favorite genres, and it’s actually what brought me to blogging many years ago. Many of my students have always gravitated toward fantasy, especially books that transport readers into unforgettable, imaginative worlds. Today, I’m excited to share a new novel that fits this description perfectly. The Magic Maze Trilogy by Samuel Warren Joseph and Phil Proctor will appeal to fans of fantasy titles like Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz. With a founding member of Firesign Theatre and an award-winning playwright joining forces, readers can be certain this novel will be something special.

Publisher’s Book Summary: "The Magic Maze Trilogy includes three books: Tyler and Tess in the Magic Maze; Madness in the Magic Maze; and Escape from the Magic Maze. It is about eleven-year old fraternal twins, Tyler and Tess Porter, who accidentally get sucked up into the bizarre world of the Magic Maze. Geared to appeal to children from seven to thirteen and older fantasy fans as well, the story propels the twins into an “Alice in Wonderland/Wizard of Oz” world. In order to return home, they must get through twelve separate parts of the maze. Each is its own world with strange rules, riddles and puzzles that the twins must solve using their wits, knowledge and athletic prowess. Tyler and Tess learn how much they mean to each other as they evade the evil QUEEN ZEBRA and her ZENTAURIAN GUARD of two-faced POLINERDS, and a duplicitous wizard, SIMON PERCIVAL. They form alliances with the rebel TRIDGETS (tiny trolls with Mohawk hairdos) led by the feisty BELKIN, and an assortment of other bizarre and funny characters. At the end, they must track down and put back together three parts of a MAGIC AMULET before they can be finally transported home, safe and sound."
