Adventure, courage, and determination surround loyal friends in the fantasy novel Littluns and the Book of Darkness. Movie Producer and Director now Author, Mark Glamack, uses his background in animation and writing to create this family friendly and Christian based young adult novel. With a mission to positively motivate, educate, enlighten and inspire through entertaining content, Glamack uses his own spiritual guiding light to draw his readers into the struggle between good and evil in this debut novel. The Littluns and the Book of Darkness will entertain audiences of all ages with its fast paced, intriguing storyline and elaborate illustrated life of the Littluns world in the Hollow Hills of the land, Terra Fermata.

Author, Mark Glamack, shows off his artistic talent with colorful and meticulous illustrations. His veteran
motion picture experience shines with expertly written detailed scene changes and engages readers with screenwriting skills that make his audience feel like they've been deep inside a high production animated movie.

Glamack has exceeded his goal in depicting the journey of life, how to choose between the light and dark side of the world while showing the gifts of friendship and how they can influence us in the shadows of our own life choices. Littluns and the Book of Darkness is a delightful, skillfully written novel that will capture both young and mature readers and leave them with full hearts and the tools necessary to know the difference between good and evil.

Littluns and the Book of Darkness is a wonderful gift for lovers of fantasy, for parents and educators who want to offer a faith based book and for librarians who want to expand their offerings.

Littluns, and the Book of Darkness.

Customer Rating See Detailed Ratings

I have never seen a fantasy that had you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire book.The characters are so different, and the story is one of so many twists and turns you're not sure where it is going. There is never a dull moment, you don't want it to end. The book may have been written for young adults, but I'm 59 reading it to grandchildren who are not old enough to read yet, but it holds my interest. It's not a book that you can just read as a bedtime story, because it takes several nights to complete, but you want to come back to it, and see what happens next. The color illustrations are so beautifully done that you take a lot of time looking at all the detail, and still you go back and find things you have missed. I would recommend this book to anyone, there is nothing offensive, but there sure is a lot of action. I believe that this is the only book I have read that it's almost like watching a movie... I am hoping the author writes a sequel to this, in fact it would make a great full length animated film. I like it better than Shrek, and I like Shrek too!

Recommended to Audrey by: a friend
Hootsey Bootsey!! It's a good read!

I recommend you read this book with your children.... they will love it and so will you. There are many things to discuss with them as you read-- about the good and the not so good! It will not only open your mind again to the fantacies of when you were young, but will allow you to guide your children as they use their imaginations as well.

I recommend it for "children" of all ages, 7 to 70.

About the Book:


This book in a word is AWESOME! My husband is in the seminary so I thought this book would be a perfect book for him to use among his many other reference books. But I must say this book can certainly stand alone. The author has done a brilliant job of show us over forty five of Jesus' parables broken down, taken apart and analyzed them for us. Complete with the verses in the Bible that are they referring to and the meaning of the parables. My husband and I both agree this book is chock full of information that can better explain the parables.


The author has also included pictures to many things throughout the Bible that maybe you have never seen before or even know of. I found it very interesting that she shows us what one of the pieces of silver Judas may have received looked like. She also has included many commentaries on Gods different works, miracles, etc. Ms. LeBlanc has definitely succeeded in trying to get us to know God more intimately. God loves us and wants us to know more about Him and all He wants to teach us.This is a great book to have along with your Bible to study the parables more deeply and really get to the heart of what Jesus was trying to convey. Ms. LeBlanc has taken something that at times seems so simple and broken it down even further. God's love really does shine through in His marvelous works. And this is definitely what the author has shown us through this book. This book is available for purchase through the link below.
