Signing/Reading at Connecticut Experiential Learning Center on January 10th
Evan DeCarlo reads from his second novel - Join Us!
Saturday, 10 January at CELC
All ages welcome – books will be available!
Evan DeCarlo, (former student of M & M), 20, native of Branford and screenwriting major in NYC, announces that his second novel, The City of The Star Gods is published and available on Amazon and Kindle.
Evan will give his first public reading at 1:00 p.m. Saturday, January 10, 2015 at theConnecticut Experiential Learning Center (CELC) Middle School in Branford. CELC is located at 28 School Street in Stony Creek.
This second novel by Evan DeCarlo, The City of The Star Gods, is Part II of the Children of The Noah trilogy. In this second installment, a ragtag crew of teens pilots a malfunctioning time machine on an impossible mission. Their goal? To save the planet from an almost certain apocalypse. Join Franklin, Joey, Hess, and Ellie as they leave behind the barren earth of the future and travel into the distant past to seek out the fabled Eternal City, home of the star gods, a magic sword, a troubled queen, fearless knights, and even a monster or two. But Franklin’s faced monsters before. Now, he’s got something much more frightening to worry about: girls.
DeCarlo said he is excited about reading at CELC. Students there followed his first book, and the leaders of the school are former teachers of his at Wightwood School. "It's gratifying to talk about my books with such a great audience," he said. "Melinda and Maria have encouraged me every step of the way, and I am grateful."

You can read more about the Q&A here. Here's what some of the readers had to say about Children of The Noah:
“Reading the Children of the Noah is affecting my life in a positive way. I really look forward to reading this book. It transports me to another place, to go and be. His words inspire me to write more of my own stories. For example, Evan DeCarlo is constantly driving and pushing my curiosity deeper and deeper into his story.” -L. Roberts
“The Children of the Noah is making me feel different, confident in myself because I have read half the book in about three months. I have a different idea of reading now; I used to feel scared about reading. The author is making me feel better about reading.”
- S. Burdick
“The most emotional part of the story, by far, was the incredibly well-written *CENSORED FOR SPOILERS*. I was really broken up about it. The last time a character’s *CENSORED FOR SPOILERS* was that brilliantly written was the *CENSORED FOR SPOILERS* of Dumbledore. Overall, I really like the Children of the Noah. It asks interesting questions that really made me think and had emotional parts that made me, well, emotional. And that’s all you can really ask for.”
