BURBANK, Calif. -- February 13, 2003 -- Angel Gate,
a publisher of books, comics and entertainment, today announces
its inaugural title, ENTER THE GAME. Authored by Debbie Bishop,
ENTER THE GAME is the first in a series of science fiction,
action/adventure novels for adults and young adults, titled
BLACK TIDE Rising.
Based on the popular "BLACK TIDE" comic book series
(also created and authored by Bishop), these novels combine
science, history, technology, mysticism, metaphysics and fantasy.
The lives of three characters (Justin, Kaila and Theros) are
set on intertwining paths. Each action-packed book focuses
on the story of one character, taking him/her back to their
teenage years, modern time. These gifted and complex characters
are growing up in the same world – dealing with many
of the same issues facing our world today – yet experiencing
life from vastly different perspectives.
In ENTER THE GAME, Justin is the son of an International Special
Forces agent. Justin has seen, first hand, the dangers in
the world. He’s been to more high schools than he can
count, and he can’t talk to a girl to save his life.
But now, when his dad is left for dead by the powers that
employ him, Justin must somehow find the courage to locate
and rescue his father by himself. To do it, he will have to
infiltrate the Deceivers – the most covert and deadly
Black Ops organization in the world.
ENTER THE GAME (ISBN 0-9664737-3-6/UPC 659979903166) will
be available late Spring 2003 in bookstores across America.
MSRP U.S. $7.95. This 300–page paperback novel, which
is Volume One in the BLACK TIDE Rising series, is recommended
for audiences age 12 and older.
Additional upcoming titles from Angel Gate include THE FAIRIES
OF BLADDERWHACK POND (a complete brand franchise with products
targeted to release in Spring 2003), and MAZE OF THE MINOTAUR
(the first young adult novel based on the best selling comic
book series, 10th MUSE).
Beginning with the ninth issue in April 2003, Angel Gate will
also publish the BLACK TIDE comic book series. This special
issue, penciled and inked by guest artist Norm Breyfogle,
begins an all-new story arc that is also influenced by many
of the conflicts and technologies in today's international
news.
