I’ve recently put together a theme collage for Five Ordinary Teens and the Monarchs of the Ten Dimensions, and I’m really excited about how it turned out! It’s been a fun and creative way to highlight some of the key tropes that make this story special. Marketing my book has been slow-going and challenging at times, but moments like these remind me of how much I enjoy sharing this world with readers.
In this blog post, I want to dive into some of the central themes represented in the collage:
Plotting and Intrigue
At the heart of Five Ordinary Teens and the Monarchs of the Ten Dimensions is a complex web of political maneuvering and power plays. The Monarchs of each dimension have their own motives and agendas, making every interaction between them fraught with tension and uncertainty. The teens must learn to navigate this intricate landscape, where nothing is ever as it seems.
Coming of Age Adventure
While the story is set across fantastical dimensions, the journey of Matt, Adam, Liz, Jess, and Carl is also a deeply personal one. As they gain elemental powers and face new challenges, they’re forced to grow and adapt in ways they never expected. This coming-of-age adventure is about more than just mastering their abilities; it’s about discovering who they are and who they want to be.
Moral Ambiguity and Ethical Dilemmas
The world of the ten dimensions isn’t black and white. Each character is shaped by their experiences, and their decisions often lead to difficult moral questions. The teens must grapple with ethical dilemmas that challenge their beliefs and force them to consider the consequences of their actions. This theme adds depth to the story, showing that good and evil are rarely clear-cut.
Friendship and Loyalty
In a world filled with danger and deception, the bond between the five teens becomes their greatest strength. Friendship and loyalty are central to their journey, helping them to stay grounded and united as they face the unknown. The relationships they build with each other and with the Monarchs play a crucial role in their survival and growth.
Creating this collage has been a great way to reflect on these themes, and I’m excited to continue sharing more about my book with you all.If you’re curious to learn more about Five Ordinary Teens and the Monarchs of the Ten Dimensions, or if you’ve got any questions, feel free to reach out!
