Tom Dozier’s New Book, “Adventures of Treebread and Goodleaf,” Centers Around Twin Brothers Who Must Learn to Lead Double Lives While Using Their Gifts to Help Others
Currently living on a family-owned farm in North Central Iowa with his wife, Julie, author Tom Dozier raises grain and animals for the farm markets. Tom and Julie’s farm has been the perfect place for family gatherings, and while their grandchildren were young, they would spend their summers on the farm in an annual “grandkid camp.” Grandkid camp meant cooking lessons with Julie, games, swimming, horseback riding, camping, fishing, caring for baby sheep, gathering eggs, and Treebread and Goodleaf bedtime stories.
Dozier writes, “‘The Adventures of Treebread and Goodleaf’ takes place in the hidden magical country of Felinon. The story tells of the early lives of twin boys born to Skyryder and Starlight. The story covers how Treebread and Goodleaf were born and raised to adulthood in the remarkable Fel society. It tells how they were taught life skills and learned to control magic to survive in a world filled with danger. Treebread and Goodleaf have the special ability to manipulate magical energy from the universe to change forms into another living creature. They use this ability to help solve mysteries and problems for others.
“Through their magic use, Treebread and Goodleaf grow to realize they are very different from other Fel children. It is frightening and exciting at the same time. They are amazed by the abilities of their transformed creatures to sense the world differently. What does the world smell like to a fox? What is it like to soar in the sky as a hawk? They must learn to adapt quickly to the world as they transform to another life form to help solve problems,” writes Dozier.
“With the help of their family, they do learn how to live their dual lives. As Treebread and Goodleaf mature, they begin to understand that their differences will not allow them to live a normal life. They cannot share a female companion. They cannot be physically separated by long distances. Even with their remarkable abilities, they are not very happy with their lives of responsibility and secrecy.
“Treebread and Goodleaf do eventually learn that they have lived a life of separation without understanding the cause. As they reach adulthood, they finally understand their full potential. The family secret can finally be told. A new hero is born to Felinon. Will this hero’s skills be able to meet the coming challenges to save Felinon from destruction?”
Published by Fulton Books, Tom Dozier’s book began nearly fifty years ago, when the author started telling stories to his sons at bedtime, their favorites being tales of Treebread and Goodleaf. Encouraged by his family to publish his stories, Dozier now shares the tales of Treebread and Goodleaf for readers of all backgrounds to enjoy. Expertly paced and brimming with fully realized characters and impressive world-building, “Adventures of Treebread and Goodleaf” is sure to delight readers and capture their hearts and imaginations, all while leaving them spellbound and desperate for more with each turn of the page.
Readers who wish to experience this enthralling work can purchase “Adventures of Treebread and Goodleaf” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Author C. A. Ballard has released a debut fantasy novel, "The Lost Legacy," following a young orphan protagonist drawn into a battle against a malevolent force seeking to strip the world of its magical power, according to the publisher’s announcement.
The book comes from Newman Springs Publishing, a New Jersey-based author-services publisher that works with writers across genres to produce and distribute their books; the company is handling both publication and promotion for the title. The novel is available in stores and through major digital retailers, including Amazon, Apple, Google Play and Barnes & Noble.
According to the publisher, Zara must safeguard her sibling while partnering with an ensemble of fantastical beings including fae warriors, mythical creatures, and magical beings to combat darkness — against an antagonist seeking to strip the world of its magic.
Ballard, described in the release as a wife, mother and grandmother with a background in accounting and medical billing, said medical challenges led her to pursue creative endeavors. "I wanted to craft deeply engaging stories about everyday individuals finding remarkable capabilities within themselves," Ballard said in a statement. "Zara’s story is about finding your tribe, embracing your power, and refusing to surrender to darkness." The publisher’s announcement notes additional projects from Ballard are already in development.
There is no independent review coverage of "The Lost Legacy" available yet; retail listings confirm the book’s publication details but do not offer critical assessment. Readers interested in the book can find purchase links through the publisher’s website or major retailers.
Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective
At Studio CarryOnHarry, we recognize that Ballard’s ensemble approach—layering fae warriors, mythical creatures, and magical beings alongside a resourceful orphan protagonist—speaks directly to a defining shift in contemporary fantasy publishing. Today’s YA and new-adult readers expect worldbuilding that extends beyond a single chosen one; they crave diverse supernatural allies and complex team dynamics that reflect both traditional mythology and modern storytelling sensibilities. Zara’s "finding your tribe" arc taps into this broader cultural moment where belonging and chosen family rival the hero’s individual journey. As the fantasy market continues to reward narratives emphasizing collective strength over solitary heroism, Ballard’s decision to populate her world with multiple fantastical perspectives positions "The Lost Legacy" within reader expectations that have reshaped the genre over the past five years. This matters because debut authors who understand—and authentically execute—these ensemble-driven narratives are better positioned to build engaged readerships from launch.

Twenty-five years after the September 11 attacks postponed its debut, a founding XM executive has released a memoir about the satellite radio company’s launch. "They Pay for Water: Building XM Satellite Radio from a Paper Concept to Millions of Subscribers," by Dan Murphy, went on sale August 17 in ebook, paperback and hardcover, according to the announcement.
The company was set to launch its inaugural U.S. satellite radio service on September 12, 2001, in the Dallas/Fort Worth and San Diego markets. Murphy and the executive team flew out of Washington, D.C. in the early morning hours of September 11, per the announcement. The launch was pushed back, going live September 25 and expanding nationally by that November.
After joining Sony as a 24-year-old with minimal prior experience, Murphy spent 15 years helping to capitalize, build, and launch XM’s satellite infrastructure, create its receivers, and establish distribution channels in retail and automotive sectors., the announcement states. "After Walkman, Discman, I was looking to join the next big audio innovation when a recruiter called," Murphy said. "It sounded perfect. It was going to be radio the way it should be."
The volume addresses the company’s funding rounds, satellite deployment, distribution challenges across retail and automotive channels, programming strategy, customer economics, multiple Chapter 11 threats, and its ultimate acquisition by Sirius., according to the announcement. "We had spent years getting ready for the biggest launch of our careers, and then the country stopped," Murphy said. "For weeks afterward, I did not know whether anyone would still care about satellite radio."
Positioned as both corporate history and personal narrative, the book targets audiences seeking insight into the construction of major consumer-facing ventures requiring substantial capital investment. — a framing the announcement ties to ongoing debates in the audio industry over subscription economics. It is Murphy’s first book and is available now on Amazon.
