| Title: | LORETTA OF THE LAMP |
| Logline: | After breaking into a museum, a London teenager is sucked into an ancient genie’s lamp and goes on an adventure through a desert fantasy world. |
| Pitch: | I DREAM OF JEANNIE meets THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA |
| Writer: | J.R. Manawa |
| Genre: | Adventure | Fantasy |
| Why to Read: | In Loretta’s journey through the world inside the lamp, we get to see a new side of this classic magical phenomenon in a visually stunning land reminiscent of the most captivating of children’s stories. Loretta is an iconic and gritty protagonist, with her lock-picking addiction and working class London upbringing making her stand out amidst the plethora of stock stand-ins that tend to populate these sorts of fantasy stories. Between the fantastic lead, her will-they-won’t-they romance with the standoffish genie, and the sheer epic scope of her adventures, there’s nothing this superior modern fantasy doesn’t accomplish with skill and originality. |
