    About this ebook

    Book 1: Adrift

    Intent on catching a few fish in the early morning hours, Sebastian rows a dinghy to the far side of a tiny island off which the family sailboat is anchored. Unaware of Sebastian’s absence, his father Cameron awakens to discover a storm quickly moving in. He lifts anchor and sets sail for another island group hundreds of miles away.

    The tropical storm blows in hard and fast. When Sebastian rows the dinghy back around the island his parents and their sailboat are gone. And he is no match for the wind and waves that drive him further out into the open sea. By the time his parents discover he is missing, they are far away and must struggle mightily through the storm to make it back. Their return to the tiny island is met with tragedy as one of Sebastian’s parents is washed overboard and their sailboat wrecked upon its rocky shore.

    Sebastian’s love of fishing helps him endure the following days adrift at sea. But his predicament has taken its toll and makes him question his sanity. He awakens one morning to a nip on his toe by a strange green pelican who alerts him to a nearby island. But one minute the island is there and the next it is not. The loud and steady sound of surf pounding against a coral reef gives a clue as to whether Sebastian has lost his mind, or found renewed hope in a tiny bit of land in the middle of the vast ocean.

    Michael William Hogan

    Michael William Hogan has written many highly acclaimed and award-winning feature and short film screenplays, short stories, webisodes and children’s books. He has also won dozens of awards for his short films that have screened at festivals in the US and globally.As a kid growing up in Michigan, Michael’s family would spend summers at a cabin on the shores of Lake Huron. There Michael would float on the “high seas” aboard his self-built raft, hunt frogs in the tall reeds of inland ponds, and hike trails through the forest enjoying the fresh air and wildlife. His days were filled with exploration and adventure, and those early years have had a huge impact on his storytelling.Today, the young boy from the Midwest may have aged, but he hasn’t necessarily grown up. You may find Michael cutting through thick jungle on an island in the South Pacific or trekking through remote mountains of Colorado. And when not out seeking a new adventure, he’s typically hunkered down at his computer creating new worlds, compelling characters, and scintillating stories to share with his grandkids...and you.“Sebastian and the Invisible Island”, now in its 2nd Edition, has been adapted into a feature film screenplay, which Michael is shopping to the film industry. Michael currently resides in Southern California with his wife and two Springer Spaniels.FUN FACT #1: Michael’s choice to include his middle name in his “professional” persona is a tribute to his grandfather, William Riederich, whose creative mind, and cleaver inventions have always served as inspiration.
