overview | excerpt | about

"《艾摩司的奇幻之旅》与我之前看过的故事都不一样，它让我感受到一种全新的东西方文化交融的叙述故事的独特魅力。KAI用天马行空的想象与严密自洽的逻辑为我们构建了一个神秘的奇想世界。在这个世界中，各种动物妙趣横生，人物经历令人难忘，相信孩子们也会喜欢。"

"(Amos the Amazing) is different from the stories I have seen before. It makes me feel the unique charm of a new narrative story that blends Eastern and Western cultures. Jorah Kai has constructed a mysterious world of whimsy for us with its wild imagination and strict self-consistent logic. In this world, all kinds of animals are full of fun, and the characters are unforgettable, and I believe that children will love it."

From the author of a tweet that Mark Hamill liked
comes a book which R.A. Salvatore wished ‘Congratulations‘ on finishing & Brandon Sanderson sent his ‘deep apologies for being unable to provide a jacket quote at this time because his work schedule is busier than ever, making it extremely difficult to find the time he would want to dedicate to your book,’ comes a modern Solarpunk fairytale, just in time to help avert an apocalypse of apoplectic apathy.

Finding time can be difficult in today’s hypermodern world.

Making time, however, can be magick.

The world might be going to hell in a handbasket, but it isn’t always going to be that way.

In 2038, in the SOLARPUNK futuristic city of Chongqing, things are looking almost rosy until a dangerous story sets off a chain reaction that threatens our world and the entire multiverse. This is the story of that story.

The world’s spiciest ice cream, a trip to Chongqing’s rural countryside, & a strange collection of curious belongings begin this unforgettable tale that mixes Solar Punk science fiction and high fantasy for a thrilling modern fairytale about a boy who must risk his soul to chase a 9-tail fox into the dreamlands for the adventure of a lifetime and the chance to save his family.

“Amos the Amazing is a bedazzling and delightful adventure through a world of wonderment and imagination. The world Jorah Kai has created is full of colorful characters, layered historical depth, and cultural splendor; it rivals Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter in complexity and creativity while maintaining specificity and believability—a recipe for pure literary amazement! This book is a wordsmith’s wonderland, a poet’s playground, and a linguist’s luxury cruiseliner that weaves a love for everything Chongqing into a tale that is sure to become an international classic. I already can’t wait to read the next installment in the series. Keep them coming, Jorah Kai!” 
– Garrett H. Jones, American Author and Publisher

“In this coming-of-age story, Amos grows to think of others more as he runs a race to save his soul and his grandfather’s life. While this book falls into the YA (Young Adult) category, I think it carries appeal for readers of all ages who enjoy the magic of childlike wonder. Amos the Amazing is highly imaginative and action-packed with well-choreographed fight scenes... which Jorah Kai accomplishes with finesse! I highly recommend this book to readers of all ages who enjoy books like Harry Potter or the Percy Jackson series. If you are ready for adventure and enjoy exploring new fantastical worlds safely from home, this one is for you. I give it a hearty 5 stars!” 
– Donna Sundblad, author of Dragonborn. 

Amos, a puckish 12-year-old boy who hides his insecurities behind a mask of mischief, dons strange artifacts he uncovers from his father’s childhood bedroom. A peculiar power pulses through his body as he slips into a world of magic and monsters, where the dangerous-amber-eyed huli jing—a nine-tailed fox spirit—draws him out, steals his soul and poisons his grandpa. 

Against all odds, Amos chases the fox into the dreamland, where he meets friends and foes along the way on a perilous and fantastic journey to recover his soul before all is lost. A spine-tingling adventure full of imaginative characters and dazzling creatures, Amos the Amazing will delight adults, teens, and anyone who dares peer beyond the shadows.

“I love this book...I can’t wait to see where it goes!” 
- Erin Bledsoe, American Author, and Editor.

SOLARPUNK literature envisions how the future will look when we succeed in solving major contemporary challenges by focusing on sustainability, a harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world, tackling and solving issues of climate change and pollution with green solutions, and community-driven efforts. Punk is a rebel’s cause, and what could be more rebellious in 2022 than being optimistic?
