CARROT FIELD

The first book in a YA fantasy series called Carrot Field by Vincent Asaro: There is a darkness quickly approaching the land of Animals, and the fate of Carrot Field rests on the shoulders of one small Rabbit: Sebastian Perriwinkle.

Drawn into an epic quest to save all Animal-kind from the evil Lord Ouroboros, Sebastian and his companions, Professor Plotonicus, an adventurous old Badger, and Brand Redtail, a mystical Fox, leave the little country known as Carrot Field to embark on a journey into the unknown. Together, they travel through the magical burrows of the Wild Foxes, into the palace of a Lion king, and onward to search the farthest ends of the world for the mythical creatures known as Humans. The companions must hurry, for the war rages and they alone can bring peace and uncover the secrets that have remained hidden for thousands of years. This epic fantasy by debut author Vincent Asaro has the scope and inventiveness of some of the great classics of fantasy literature. Vincent Asaro was born in 1973 in Long Island, NY, the youngest of four children. He started putting his stories on paper the moment he could write; unsurprisingly, his first story, written at the age of six, was about a rabbit! He completed his first novel at the age of fifteen. Vincent’s mother instilled in him a love of books at an early age: she got each of her children their own library card before they could even read, making weekly library visits a habit. He has been everything from a professional musician and lead singer for a heavy-metal band, to a book and album reviewer, to a full time adult college student studying anthropology and a published poet; he also spent twenty years in retail bookselling. CARROT FIELD took 19 years to complete and get published, it is his first published novel. He presently resides in the mountains of Pennsylvania.”
