The DEMONKEEPER,
published by Penguin, is already development as a major motion picture
at Fox.
Mr. Buckingham wrote the screenplay first,
then the novel only to be asked to adapt to script form again - as
well as the unusual business behind this cycle.
Part HARRY POTTER, part DRAGONSLAYER,
DEMONKEEPER is a family fantasy that should draw broad audiences
and delight all ages.

DEMONKEEPER by Royce
Buckingham
17 year old Nathaniel Grimlock has
just inherited a home full of needy demons. What he really wants is a
date with plucky librarian's assistant, Sandra Nertz.
But when Nat neglects his
monster-sitting duties to woo Sandy, the deadliest demon in the house
escapes and begins to gobble up Seattle street kids! Now Nat must race
to find a doomed homeless boy, recapture the vicious kid-eating beast,
and hopefully earn a goodnight kiss. A fun and fright-filled
fantasy-adventure for ages 9 to 99. |
