Condo Heroes Book 1 (2nd Edition)

The book is almost done. Winnie said she would edit the line art a bit then colour it in ('cuz, you know, Jaren appears really out of proportion in the front cover).

That aside, 2 pages at the end of the book has been reserved for extra drawings by the authors/artists. =) We assure that the drawings have quality.

Now, for a short summary of Book 1:

Tyna Lee, 19, child prodigy and top of her class, has applied for a part time job at GreenGlades Condo Agency. With bright red hair, large eyes and a wealth of charisma to boot, it is fairly certain that she catches the eyes of many men. She hopes her first day would go without problems, but things just keep cropping up!

First, there is someone from her past back to haunt her. His name is Jaren Tan, 21, once a male student who defeated Tyna to claim the championship for the 'Smartest Student' Competition 2 years ago. Clad in a shirt, vest and tie, he appears to be the epitome of ice coolness and professionalism, but what has he got to do with her? Tyna is horrified when she finds out that he is to be her partner at work!

Secondly, strange occurances have been noted at the company's most recent and largest project and the boss, Mr. Ang Kiasoo, has decided on both Tyna and Jaren to be sacrificial lambs for - um, in charge of - investigating the reason for the occurances.

The pair is launched into a dizzying adventure that lands them in an alternate universe where robe-wearing creatures live in strange houses. As they uncover more of the strange new beings, they are pulled into their strange new world and become involved in the creatures' hunt for a sustainable power source for their world, which threatens to destroy GreenGlade Condo Agency's newest project!

What will Tyna and Jaren do now in the face of all the confusion, panic and flurry? Join our heroes in a hilarious episode following them through their adventures to find out!

Also, here is a short description of the extra drawings at the back of the book:

Tyna sleeps with a serene and calm smile on her face, arms crossed over a half written letter to her 'Mama'. What could she be dreaming of that elicited such a sweet smile?

Jaren stands in the rain with an irritated expression, drenched and grave and looking very sorry. He looks like he was waiting for someone, who could it be?

=) AY, I have finally updated the blog!
