Oak Creek Public Library
8040 S 6th St
Oak Creek, WI 53154

Boswell Book Company presents Wisconsin author Christopher Roubique at Oak Creek Public Library for an event featuring his debut middle grade novel, Mythspeaker, an epic fantasy adventure inspired by Indigenous American mythology follows a band of misfit children who must pull off an impossible heist in order to save the world.

Registration link coming soon.

Roubique’s thrilling and heartwarming fantasy novel shows the importance of teamwork, respect for nature, and believing in yourself. Thanks to a prophecy revealed when he was little, thirteen-year-old Kyta always knew that he was destined to save the world. So when the ground quakes and the trees whisper that something is wrong, Kyta leaps into action, desperate to fulfill his destiny.

From the starred Publishers Weekly review: “Imaginative worldbuilding is enlivened by engaging characters contending with grounded emotions such as loneliness and insecurity as they strive to perform heroic and inspiring feats in this timeless and original celebration of Indigenous stories.” And from author JC Cervantes: “Mystical. Magical. And filled with heart.”

Christopher Roubique is a debut author from Wisconsin.
