Stairway to Arubia
Andrew Schneider, Quincy Roggins, and Joseph Prater are Minor-Risk students at a school geared towards the education and betterment of adolescents who suffer from a wide array of mental disorders. With his father committing suicide, his mother landing in an adult insane asylum for her bouts of extreme schizophrenia, no other relatives to fall back on, and his own mild case of schizophrenia he inherited from his sour gene pool, Andy has lived the majority of his life within the walls of the Institution. It is not until curiosity wills him to open a door claiming to be “Forbidden” that Andy uncovers a great secret that his natural mind could never fathom: a world full of magic and mystery has been lying hidden atop a forgotten floor of the Institution the entire time, but why keep it a secret?

As Andrew dives deeper into the mysteries he has found, he uncovers the history of the entire civilization of Arubia, but all is not as glorious as it seems. With the discovery of the world’s powerful energy, there also comes the prospect of its approaching doom. With the land’s defensive magic suddenly disabled and a dark enemy lurking at the outskirts of Arubia, the race begins to rescue the entire land from a shadowed imprisonment, and Andrew is the only one that can stop it.

In this debut published fantasy novel by Thomas Laidlaw, Stairway to Arubia combines all of the greatest aspects of fictional writing: action, mystery, suspense, magic, wonder, and even romance. Each chapter flows like its own miniature adventure, leaving the audience begging to read the next. Best of all, no matter how much you may ponder the storyline, you will never guess how Andy, his friends, and the fate of a world come to an abrupt end.
