Arnie, Mervin, & The Blood of Kings by Luke Pedliham
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 233 KB
Overview: Arnold Gibbs is a thirteen year old boy with un-diagnosed childhood depression and S.A.D. He lives on a bleak council estate ironically called the ‘Sunny Hill Estate’ in South London with his Mother, step-father and best friend (and Dog) Lady.
At school, Arnie (as he is known to most) is the regular victim of bullies who take exception to his quick wit and apathy for their juvenile and cruel games and for school in general. This, coupled with the fact that it is mid-way through a very cold, wet and grey February makes Arnie feel very sad and morose and like his life is not worth living and has no meaning at all. What’s worse though, is that for all his intelligence, quick wit and good humour – he just doesn’t know why he feels like this and neither does anyone else in his life, at home or at school. A fact that only perpetuates his own obvious frustration.
On his fourteenth birthday Arnie’s world is turned upside down and inside out when the impromptu party his Mum throws for him is gatecrashed by a strange and apparently nerdy old man claiming to be his Uncle Mervin. After something of a grand entrance and with the help of a prophetic marble he has in his possession, Mervin shows Arnie that all is far from what it seems. He shows him that his life is very much worth living as he is part of a legendary royal bloodline that is connected to ancient natural force called Gaia and that it has more meaning than he could ever have possibly imagined.
