Trankarri - The Boy with a Magical Pen is the first book in a sweeping epic series titled, The Inkworld Sagas. At its core the book is a coming-of-age story about Nathaniel Hancock and his life growing up in the suburbs of Boston. His life is anything but normal because his family has its roots across the Atlantic in the beautiful English country town of Yeovil. It is here that Nathaniel's imagination begins to open up under the wise guidance of his great-grandfather, who, like Nathaniel also has a great imagination.
It is here that an epic adventure is set in motion...
When talented young artist Nathaniel Hancock receives a new drawing pen for Christmas, he promises his great-grandfather that he'll prepare him a Masterpiece for the following year. But Nathaniel is unaware for the Pen is magical - and as he finishes his Masterpiece it comes to life before his very eyes.
Upon entering the drawing he discovers that he has added new territory to the enchanted land that lies beyond: the Inkworld, a pen-and-ink realm where reality is limited only by the artist's imagination.
After Nathaniel rescues an elf from a cruel and dangerous prison of ink, he realizes the Inkworld is far more complex than he ever imagined. For dark forces lurk beneath the idyllic surface. In saving the elf, Nathaniel accidentally unleashes an ancient evil that threatens to destroy all that is good in the Inkworld.
And it is up to him to set things right...
