What people are saying.....

"[T]aking courage and adventure to the next level." —People

“An adventure that rings with courage, loyalty, and the spirit of discovery. The ultimate summer read!” —Scouting America

"A story of bravery that will leave you inspired and breathless..." —Mike Rowe, Dirty Jobs

About the Book

The world’s most legendary dragon slayer, St. George, gets a bold, modern reimagining in this explosive beginning to the Order of the Dragon Slayer series.

“Warning: This adventure is full of danger. It’s got dragons and death, coal mines and cold-blooded killers, treasure and true love—the stuff legends are made of. But even more dangerous are the kids in this tale. They’re tough. They’re brave. And they’re exactly the kind of heroes our world needs.” —from the foreword by Chief World Scouting Ambassador Bear Grylls

Everyone in Big Mountain, West Virginia, knows entering the coal mines is strictly forbidden. But twelve-year-old George Goodwin knows something more... deep underground lies a treasure that could save his town and clear his father’s name.

When his Scouting troop heads out for a weekend camping trip, George secretly recruits his best friends, Skunks and Artie, on a quest to find proof. But their plans unravel when they collide with George’s camera-wielding nemesis, Clementine, and her pageant-queen sister, Flo... and the motley crew is pulled into the adventure of a lifetime.

They’ll need every ounce of courage... and every trick in the Scouting handbook... to survive! Collapsing tunnels. Ruthless thieves. Dynamite traps. And a fire-breathing monster with a hunger to devour mankind . . . starting with them!

Full of unexpected thrills, rebellious hope, and laugh-out-loud humor, New York Times bestselling authors Candace Lee and Eric Newman deliver a blazing new adventure starring an unlikely hero who’s about to become the next great legend.

About the Authors

Candace Lee & Eric Newman love to tell stories. From Disney+ to NBCUniversal, they’ve written for Emmy-winning series, produced movies and music, and collaborated with stars like Bear Grylls, Andrea Bocelli, and Larry the Cucumber. Along the way, they landed on the New York Times bestseller list with their friend Max Lucado. But their favorite adventure of all? George Goodwin, Dragon Slayer—a creative quest they began long before they each started raising little dragon slayers of their own. Candace studied film and television production at New York University, while Eric focused on writing at Oral Roberts University. Goonies at heart, they dig deep for stories of truth, wonder, and redemption. Their vision for the Order of the Dragon Slayer series is to inspire a generation to be prepared—mentally, physically, and spiritually—to slay life’s dragons.

The Blobs: Volume Two Review and $10 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway

This post may contain affiliate links. MarksvilleandMe may collect a share of sales if you decide to shop from them. Please see my full disclosure policy for details.

Many thanks to David C. Cook for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

Welcome to the

The Blobs: Volume Two Review and $10 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway

hosted by

MarksvlleandMe

sponsored by

Momentum and David C. Cook

I am excited to tell you that The Blobs: Volume 2: Attack of the Glitchies is the second book in The Blobs, a graphic novel

series that blends sci-fi adventure, humor, and high-energy action for readers ages 8-12, written by Justin Stuart and illustrated by Rick Douglas.

The Blobs are back—and this time, everything is on the line. What starts as a chaotic adventure quickly turns into something bigger, as a goofy crew of misfits stumbles upon a stolen stash of incredibly powerful space gems. Along the way, one very unlikely hero begins to discover what it truly means to step up, make the right choices, and maybe even save the galaxy.

About the Book:

Fans of Dog Man, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and Captain Underpants will love this hilarious, high-stakes adventure about friendship, courage, and what it takes to protect the place you call home. The Blobs are back—bigger, braver, and in more danger than ever. Cadetski and his crew of misfit Blobs finally make it to their new home, Planet Splotch, only to realize they’ve accidentally stolen the most powerful artifacts in the galaxy: the Doomsicles.

Now, they’re on the radar of every villain in the galaxy, especially King Neptune: a tyrant with plans for domination who wants the doomsicles back ... and isn’t asking nicely. With their new world on the brink of invasion, Cadetski and the gang must dive into the planet’s deepest secrets, face impossible odds, and discover that real courage isn’t about size or strength, it’s about sacrifice. And when one Blob is believed to be a galactic “Chosen One,” things go from bad... to bonkers.

Packed with laugh-out-loud chaos, surprising heart, and clean comedy, The Blobs: Attack of the Glitchies cranks the adventure to the max.

You can find The Blogs, Volume 1 & 2, by clicking the photos below.

The Blobs: Volume Two – Attack of the Glitches picks up right where The Blobs: Crash Land left off. Because the plot is so tightly connected, you’ll definitely want to read the first volume before diving into the second to get the full story.

Targeted at kids aged 8–12, this series is a genuine page-turner. It reminds me of being a kid myself—the kind of book where you beg your parents for "just one more chapter" before lights out. It’s exactly what you want for an avid young reader; it keeps them hooked and excited to see what happens on the next page.

Beyond the fast-paced action, what I appreciate most is that each book weaves in meaningful lessons on character. It’s a fantastic choice for any middle-grade reader who loves a good adventure.
