## The Author

Karim Pieritz, a German author from Berlin, began spinning tales when his son begged for “just one more” bedtime story. Those late-night ideas grew into the **[Lighthouse of Adventure](https://www.kaspabue.de/en/lighthouse-of-adventure-trilogy/)** trilogy—fast-paced, playful fantasy for children.

As his son grew older and asked for something bolder, he wrote his first young adult adventure novel, **[The Hunt for the Mysterious Cylinder Seal](https://www.kaspabue.de/en/the-hunt-for-the-mysterious-cylinder-seal/)**.

Continuing to craft immersive worlds for older readers, he expanded his young adult catalog with **[Guardians of the Soulwood](https://www.kaspabue.de/en/guardians-of-the-soulwood/)**, a captivating fantasy novel for ages 13 and up.
