JD Laverty and his wife have found it difficult to find well-written, contemporary authors for their family to enjoy without ideologies and content that parents find morally objectionable. YA and children's literature often depict authority as corrupt, power as evil and commonly teach that the ends justify the means. Wishing to exemplify the morals of a just society, FPS Media offers fiction and non-fiction titles to meet that demand, pledging to uphold three primary commitments:
Wholesome, age-appropriate content: We will express ourselves in full sentences without resorting to explicit depictions of gore, sex or swearing.
Upholding traditional family values: We will depict the world we wish to live in as virtuous including the roles of authority, peace, love and sacrifice.
Uphold the truth: We won't shy away from serious topics and depicting reality to avoid offending someone's feelings.
The first in the Modis trilogy of YA novels, Jacob Littleton is not like other people, but when a stranger tries to take him away from his sister, he embarks on a journey, fraught with peril, to free his sister from the clutches of a mad man. Set in the 1830's, Jacob's experiences are set against a backdrop of the industrial revolution and mixes adventure and action with questions of identity. Like all of JD Laverty's works, an effort is made to make the stories fun and dynamic while maintaining a commitment to wholesome content.
Conceived as three novels that fit together like a puzzle, any of the Modis novels can be read alone or the story can be expanded by reading the others.
