Local Author & CSUN Grad Student Wins Young Adult Book of the Month

Ojai, CA, March 06, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Escargot Books and Music is proud to announce that multi-genre author Sofia Diana Gabel won the title Young Adult Book of the Month for February from Long and Short Reviews for her science fiction novel, "Two Brothers: Origin, the first in the Ramtalan Trilogy." "Two Brothers: Origin" focuses on two teenage brothers who are not exactly like other high school kids and are in fact part alien. They soon become targets when a secret government agency, AURA, finds out the truth about them. The second book in the trilogy, "Two Brothers: Heritage," expands on the boys' relationship with their guardian and reveals so much more to their background. The Third and final book, "Two Brothers: Species," is currently in progress and will be published very soon.

"Blend a coming-of-age saga with a thriller and add alien forces pitted against one another and you have a compelling, satisfyingly unpredictable plot that all ages will find impossible to put down." -Midwest Book Review

"The action is fast-paced and there are a number of points of view given, keeping things moving quickly." -Long and Short Reviews
