The Glowworm

A young man fresh out from his teen years undertakes the task nobody else has dared to of saving his town from doom, at the risk of his own life, without even first calculating the risks. "The town where I came into the world, grew up and spent my life in, declared itself doomed...Before you, I pledge not to allow the forces of darkness subdue our town, my town."With this statement, the protagonist of THE GLOWWORM, a 42,000 words action-adventure novel for young readers reveals himself to his town, which is on the verge of destruction. The story narrates the adventure-filled journey undertaken by a young man through the exuberant but treacherous South Forest to save two of his valuable possessions: his town and himself from the imminent doom they face after the threat; to plunge them into the densest fog of darkness and to cast them into oblivion.In an excess of self-confidence the young man convinces his town's people that, where nobody has thought of how to avoid the tragedy that haunts them, he is the one mentioned in The Book of Towns, the chosen one to save them and the town from destruction.The daring young man compensates his lack of experience to carry out the feat with his innate courage and innocence, audacity and disdain for prudence, and the immense baggage derived from the place where he spent precious time of his life: the town's library. Fortunately, he soon realizes he won't be alone in his probable impossible quest.After having read THE GLOWWORM the reader will be rewarded when he finds that the story tells us about a hero who not only saves his town from destruction but refreshes in our souls the certainty of the eternal and unwavering love of Good against the persistent envy in Evil.
