Casey's Writing

Seeking representation for my debut novel!

The Library in the Grotto is complete at 67k words. Literary agents have requested pages from the book, which beta readers called “clever and creative”, with a “beautifully imagined world” that is “rich, immersive, and very well thought out”.

Aspiring lorekeeper Eliam Rill is the only witness to an attack against the Queen— and also the prime suspect. He’s sentenced to work in a vast library within a magical mountain, where he and his newfound friends— the daughter of spies, a cursed kobold and a mysterious bookbinder— uncover a plot connecting the assassination attempt, ancient magic, and the Queen’s secret heir.
