Twin Tricks

From Carrow Brown and Eric Ninaltowski—Twin Tricks is a kids' graphic novel from Rippaverse Backyard: twin trickster brothers, rune magic, and a chase across the realms.

Twin brothers. Twin tricks. Twin troubles. In Asgarth—the Norse-inspired realm of the Norfrica mythology—two trickster brothers have pranked their way through the patience of everyone up to and including Alfodr, the All-Father himself. When their mischief finally goes one rune too far, the chase spills into Middangarth, the mortal realm, with Rasha the trickster squirrel along for the ride and viking-sized trouble close behind.

A humor-forward mythology adventure for readers 10-12—sibling rivalry, rune magic, and family loyalty in a realm-hopping chase that introduces young readers to the same mythological world as Norfrica: Glorious Death, scaled for the middle-grade shelf. A self-contained story and a clean entry point to the Rippaverse Backyard imprint—joining the Vassie picture books on the list built to hand the Rippaverse to the next generation of readers, one age band at a time.

From writer Carrow Brown—Rippaverse Publishing's most prolific comics writer (Smuggler's Stitch, Dirty Deeds, the Jailbreak novel)—with interior art by Eric Ninaltowski (Shadow Sentry: Collected Edition) and colors by Marco Lesko. On sale 10/13/26.
