Books 4–5 in Laurie Woodward's 'Artania Chronicles' series of fantasy novels, now available in one volume!
Portal Rift: Ever since Bartholomew Borax III returned to homeschool, Mother has been so cleaning-obsessed that all he dreamed of was finding another portal to the magical Artania. But now, with doorways opening without warning and thrusting him through time and space, he has no idea where he’ll end up next. It might be a Parisian loft with a depressed Monet, near a burning café with monsters in pursuit, or in the middle of an empty street at midnight. And then his best friend falls into a coma that no one seems to be able to wake him from. Everyone is perplexed but there are clues, and Bartholomew is determined to help his friend. With Alex unconscious and time running out, can he find the key in time?
Persistence Of Memory: Bartholomew's germaphobe mother still makes him bathe six times a day, and he can’t tell anyone about the mystical Artania. But when Bartholomew, alongside skater girl Gwen and fellow artist Alex, are yanked back to the magical world of Artania, they discover that much has changed. Artanians are losing their memory, and no one can find a cure. With epic battles, surreal creatures and a looming threat, can the trio save Artania from certain doom?
