May 24, 20214 yr comment_44534 The year: 1920 When famed magician, Dr. Marvellus Djinn, selects a motley crew of talented teens to tour her theme park of magic and mythological creatures, all are elated for the opportunity. Once they arrive, the odd scholars realize Dr. Djinn is more than just a wealthy magician eager to provide Colored folks with an escape from Jim Crow. From cotton candy teleportation to haunted obelisks and swallowing monsters, The Motherland packs a thrilling, and dangerous, punch. Dr. Marvellus Djinn’s Odd Scholars is a celebration of heroes and heroines of the African diaspora in a thrill ride that should be enjoyed by all! -Devan Renea, WB & OWN Television Writer Moore’s skillful writing brings together likeable characters, a maelstrom of magicks, and a hope for justice, as the youngsters come up with the sort of mad idea which only youngsters can – to save the park and improve the world . . . Thoroughly enjoyable, like a Harry Potter heist-movie with a real purpose.” -John Linwood Grant, Author/Editor at greydogtales.com Order today from MVmedia! ISBN No.: 978-1734627992 Report
