HOW IT ALL BEGAN
In 1993, just 7 years after its release, my babysitter Keri checked out Labyrinth with David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly from Blockbuster for us to watch one Saturday night. During the opening credits I asked “Why is a princess wearing jeans?” She said, “Just watch!” From then on, I was hooked. I had a big piano recital coming up where I was playing the most advanced piece on the program. As a reward for my big achievement, my mom showed me a gift she had wrapped that I would receive at the end of my musical performance. I asked her “What is it???” and I’ll never forget her punny reply: “You’ll “see”!” She had bought me my favorite movie, Labyrinth on VHS and I still have my original in its original case to this day!
If anyone asks what is my #1 favorite movie, I always answer Labyrinth. It has so many meanings for me over the years and now, today, the movie continues to reveal new aspects that can only be understood as an adult.
With that, many questions had been forming in my head like: Who built the labyrinth and why? It seems old. Was Jareth always the only Goblin King or were there others before him? He doesn’t seem to care for his role as king. Why is he the only human in a land of creatures (other than Sarah who demanded entry). And many more.
I have spent literally decades wondering about these things and this year I started imagining logical answers to how the Labyrinth from the movie as we know it came to be. I enjoyed taking my time creating the illustrations and writing in new characters. I truly hope if you love Labyrinth as much as I do or have never even seen it before, that you will enjoy my little work of fiction. Its intention is the same, keeping in line with my love for writing bedtime stories for adults, this book is about a man who struggles with natural sleep. The hopes are the book helps you find your way to dreamland.
STORY
Labyrinthine is the name of the ancient realm before its more modern name. The story takes place in a time before the events in the movie occurred. Hadrian has lost the love of his life, is suffering the effects of grief, and will do anything to be with her again since her passing. Follow his path down a road of suffering as he encounters many tribulations until his destiny guides him to raise a successor.

GOING GREEN
The investment you make in this book is reflected in more than just the physical copy. It represents months of hard work, creative decisions, illustrations, materials, and all the magic that went into creating what’s from cover to cover, all by one person. In addition, because each book is Printed On Demand, custom made to order, this means there aren’t any other books laying around in storage waiting to be pulled off the shelves. This saves energy, time, reduces material waste, and is zero strain on efforts and the environment. If multiple orders are placed for my books, I can offer an even further discounted rate with higher volume runs.
