SCOTT LEWIS has
lived all his life in the United States,
where, until recently, he attended college full-time. He says about his first book,
the fantasy novel TRAGIC TRAVELS: "I write to entertain people, to grow their imagination, to free them from boredom, to encourage
literacy, and so readers can have fun in new ways. I write to exercise readers’
minds by showing them new worlds and creatures that they've never dreamed of before.“

In this debut novel, TRAGIC TRAVELS,
Scott Lewis introduces
Zanzan --
a hero for all who love adventure, fast-paced battles, and just causes,
and Dersas --
a creature who is a "myth come alive"
as they joins forces to rescue a magical species from geneocide.
EXCERPT FROM Chapter I, TRAGIC TRAVELS:
"Dersas trembled and darted its head everywhere. It was probably looking for the man who crawled out of a ditch in the distance,Zanzan thought.
That man was humanoid, with smooth yet tough skin
colored in large red and violet spots. The person had no hair, but had many spike-like,
small, tentacles on his head. He also had no fingernails. This appearance was the same as Zanzan’s; he knew—they were both of the species tsawgtoy.
But we aren’t the same kind of tsawgtoy, Zanzan
thought, not if this one’s enslaved khooracks"
