At Aardvark Israel, we’re constantly inspired by the creativity and accomplishments of our students. Today, we’re excited to highlight Corey, who is about to fulfill a lifelong dream: publishing his debut novel, Hylenia: The Great Prophecy.
Set to launch in just a few days, Hylenia: The Great Prophecy is a young adult novel blending Jewish mythology with the excitement of fantasy. The story follows Austin Bolden, a young protagonist who moves to a magical school on the hidden island of Hylenia. There, he joins an investigative club to uncover the truth behind mysterious disappearances, only to find himself caught in a web of political unrest and conspiracies tied to the enigmatic “Great Prophecy.”
With its imaginative storytelling and thought-provoking themes, Corey’s book is sure to captivate readers and transport them to a world of magic, mystery, and mythology.
Corey’s love for storytelling began when he was just ten years old. He dreamed of writing a book that he would have wanted to read as a child. Now, a decade later, he reflects on what it means to see that dream come true.
“Writing this book has been a deeply personal journey,” Corey shares. “The process was full of creativity and fun. I even surprised myself at times with the direction the story took.”
Of course, the journey wasn’t without its challenges. “There were moments when my motivation dipped,” he admits, “but I kept going by remembering that little boy who dreamed of becoming an author. Thinking of him gave me the strength to push through.”
For Corey, the book is more than just a story—it’s the realization of a dream years in the making and a reminder of the power of perseverance and creativity.
