Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo was a runaway best seller! In book one, tens of thousands of fantasy readers were introduced to Foo, the fantastic realm that allows mankind to hope and dream. Now, Foo fans from across the country can continue the adventure with Leven, Winter, Clover, and Geth. Book two promises to be even more suspenseful, with a whispered secret that will take your breath away!
After escaping a deranged dreammaster and destroying the hidden gateway, Leven Thumps and his band of travelers must now journey across Foo and restore Geth from his shape as a toothpick to the rightful king he once was. But Foo is still in chaos, and Leven must overcome several adversaries and survive the Swollen Forest in order to save his friends and keep hope alive. As fate would have it, nothing goes as planned, and even Geth begins to wonder if they will succeed. Bad goes to worse as Leven digs up a longburied secret, one that stalks him, determined to whisper a truth that could be deadly in the wrong hands. Through it all, Leven finds the courage to do what is right and continues to discover an inner strength and a power he never thought possible.

Audible (an Amazon.com company) is the world's leading online
audio-book provider. Audible is responsible for supplying audio
content to Apple's ITunes service. I have been listening,
enjoying and creating audio books for many years. With

audio-books began to become availalbe for download.
Having tried most of

the conclusion that Audible offers the best and most
reliable service. Whether you are using an IPod, IPhone,
mobile phone, Dune or one of the many other MP3 players
availalbe, Audilbe makes downloading great quality audio
content easy and umcomplicated.
