Discover 'The Ehrich Weisz Chronicles'


Here's a Halloween treat. The first book in a new teen fantasy series about the adventures of a young Harry Houdini has just been released. The Ehrich Weisz Chronicles: Demon Gate is written by Marty Chan and published in paperback by Fitzhenry & Whiteside. Here's the description:

When young Ehrich Weisz — the future illusionist, Harry Houdini — follows his brother, Dash, through a strange portal, he is thrust into an alternate New York where the immigrants aren't just different ethnicities but different species. He finds work in this strange steampunk world as a Demon Hunter, tracking down dangerous otherworldly visitors that threaten the city's safety, while hiding his own foreign origins. A curious medallion, his only clue to finding his brother, leads Ehrich to a mysterious woman caught up in inter-dimensional intrigue, and he must learn who to trust as he unravels the truth if he ever wants to find his way home. 
First of a new series, The Ehrich Weisz Chronicles, by the award-winning Marty Chan.
