Four orphans. No home. No family. Only the gifts they were born with.
On a fateful Christmas Eve, two infants are launched into the skies from the baby factory in the Great White North, each marked with a single letter and a prayer for a good life. But the Great Christmas Eve Snownado tears through the Oleman River Valley with merciless force, scattering destinies like snowflakes in a gale. Instead of arriving safely at their intended homes, these children become lost souls, cast into a strange and unknowing world alongside two others who share similar fate.
From the harsh streets of Grouch County to the enchanted shores of Mystic Island, from the wilds of Quiriland to the legendary realms of Oz and beyond, four orphans must navigate a landscape filled with magic, danger, and mystery. Some of them have little to no family to nurture them and no safety net to catch them, they have only their wits, their courage, and mysterious gifts they are only beginning to understand. The others have landed in situations where they have been nurtured but either did not accept the nurturing or have a longing to find where they should have been. As their paths slowly converge, each must answer the same impossible question: where is your home?
Fortunes of the Lost is a sweeping fantasy adventure about resilience, belonging, and perseverance. In a world that deals them adversity, will these four lost souls find the strength to create their own fortunes, or will fate finish what it started on that devastating Christmas night?

Matthew S. Schaefer is a retired educational leader with over two decades of experience as an Assistant Principal, during which he developed effective positive behavior and character development programs for numerous schools. He holds two advanced degrees in education and spent years shaping young lives before turning his attention to storytelling.Schaefer's debut fantasy novel, Fortunes of the Lost, channels his deep understanding of resilience and personal growth into a tale of four orphans navigating a world of magic and mystery. His career spent observing how environment, nurturing, and inner character shape a person's trajectory gave him a unique lens through which to explore the question at the heart of the book: when the deck is stacked against you from the start, can the strength within be enough to forge your own fortune? The themes of perseverance and self-discovery that defined his work in education now fuel his fiction.Originally born and raised in Wisconsin, Schaefer later migrated to Georgia, where he built his career in education before settling into a delightful retirement in Florida. These days, he can be found walking the beach or riding his bike every morning alongside his soulmate, Stacey, and Hudson, the wonder dog. It is in this peaceful chapter of life that he discovered the joy of writing fantasy fiction, crafting worlds where mystery and magic illuminate the resilience of the human spirit. Follow Matthew S. Schaefer for updates on new releases.
