Connecting childhood to adulthood in a delightful way. From soaring to a city built into a waterfall to great sights as experienced by the young protagonist, Mord McGhee addresses life's ups and downs with humor, luck, love, and magic. He encourages readers to find the true meaning of the little blue sun which suddenly appeared in the sky.

In a starred review, world-renowned adventurer Adam Davies notes, "Mord McGhee's Old Flames and Heroes is a great addition to the genre (young adult fantasy)."
McGhee's message is simple and fun, capturing the great balance of life and a parent's fears for their children, but through it all he makes it easy to laugh and believe in happy endings.
A wonderful gift for anyone starting a new phase in their life!
