The Queen's Sceptre

By: Robbie Scott

Narrated by: David Marcus Gibson

At nine years old, Joey is way too grown-up for make-believe. But when he agrees to participate once more in a pretend adventure cooked up by his oddball dad, he stumbles across a mysterious artifact that pits him against an unscrupulous foe....

In David Marcus Gibson's pitch-perfect narration of Robbie Scott's latest work, The Queen's Sceptre, the nine year old point-of-view animates everyday life with the magic and wonder it always deserved.

Adventure tale or epic quest - this is the story of Joey (who's in the fourth grade after all, and still struggles with reading), his father Ethan-il-Fabuloso (a practitioner of sleight-of-hand who can't hold a steady job), and best friend Gloria (who's good at absolutely everything).

Ride the high-voltage rails of imagination, public transit, and heroic works, as three friends take on the ambitious Professor, in a lightning-fueled battle of wits for control of the mysterious "energy of the heavens" - and who knows, perhaps pick up a little wisdom along the way about life, loss, and what really matters.
