Yurién Cruz Clemente’s new book Las Aventuras de Saúl y la Villa Fantasmal, an action-packed adventure about a boy’s quest to retrieve a stolen magical diamond

December 24, 2020

NEW YORK, Dec. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book Las Aventuras de Saúl y la Villa Fantasmal was created by Yurién Cruz Clemente. Yurién is an author who resides in Las Tunas, Cuba. He is a young man who, since he was a child, has harbored the desire to write an adventure book.

Yurién said this about his book: “There is a theft of a diamond, which is more than a simple jewel. It is a talisman that provides protection to an ancient village of simple and humble people who, after the theft, became ghostly beings.

On the other hand, Saúl, a young man of ordinary and rural life who sees his days pass in a miserable village, while reaping dreams of greatness, decides to leave his insignificant life behind one day and undertake a journey through a dark and ancient world surrounded by dangers he never dreamed of.

His steps take him at random to said village, and his life is intertwined with the fate the inhabitants of it run after—the theft of the diamond. Being chosen by them to recover it back, he must save the people of the place.

Weapons of great power are given to him so he can fulfill his mission successfully—a sword that glows in the dark and a bow without a quiver that materializes certain silver arrows just by pulling it. However, the search is delayed. At each step and in each town he enters, he offers his selfless help to the inhabitants he meets along the way, facing dangerous beings such as ogres and dragons or making friends with fortunetellers and healers.

Surrounded by adventures, dangers, and unsuspected things and facing mythological beings, he goes ahead without losing sight of his main objective—return the pink diamond in perfect condition to the ghostly village.”

Published by Page Publishing, Yurién Cruz Clemente’s new book Las Aventuras de Saúl y la Villa Fantasmal follows the riveting moments of a young boy tasked with returning a mystical diamond from its thieves to save the lives of the cursed.

Consumers who wish to read the roller-coaster events of magic and mystery can purchase Las Aventuras de Saúl y la Villa Fantasmal online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble stores.

Juana Jaén J.’S New Book No Debo Usar Drogas, An Insightful Narrative That Teaches The Dangers Of Drug Abuse And Addiction To The Youth

December 24, 2020

0

NEW YORK, Dec. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book No Debo Usar Drogas was created by Juana Jaén J. Juana is an author and has been an elementary education teacher for many years. He emigrated to the United States, where he currently resides.

Juana said this about her book: “No Debo Usar Drogas is the title of this book, and it is the phrase that should always remain in the mind of every child and teenager. Today, drugs are paving the way for our children and youth to become future criminals.

It is sad to hear and see that many children and grandchildren have mistreated and sometimes even killed relatives for not providing them with money for their insane habit.

It is with great dismay that we observe that the drug situation is not only taking place in the United States but has ‘contaminated’ and affected the rest of the continent. Whatever happens in North America always has repercussions in the countries of Latin America.

It seems that drugs will never be eradicated by governments, but we can try to educate and guide many children from an early age, communicating with them is key.

Parents, citizens, we must cooperate with the campaign against drugs.

No Debo Usar Drogas is my contribution.

The book consists of twenty-one stories, one for each Hispanic country—Spain for being the motherland and the United States for being the Hispanic childhood of New York that inspired me to write this book.

My biggest wish is that this book helps parents start a conversation with their little ones about the dangers of drugs.”

Published by Page Publishing, Juana Jaén J.’s new book No Debo Usar Drogas hopes to bridge parents, educators, and children together by reminding them of the negative impact of drugs and substance abuse on the individual and the society.

Consumers who wish to enlighten the youth on the horrors of illegal drugs can purchase No Debo Usar Drogas in any bookstore or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

But as it happens to all of us, he was given the opportunity of salvation, which came to him right at the last moment of his life. This is a novel that will fascinate you to the depths of your senses.”
