Los Angeles, CA – Tomboy And Tomgirl, a vibrant new book series authored by Gavin Thomas, is making waves in the literary world with its unique blend of superhero action, comedy, romance, and spirituality. The series, which revolves around a diverse cast of characters, celebrates individuality and promotes messages of anti-bullying and self-acceptance. Thomas’s creation features tomboys and tomgirls as protagonists who, alongside a range of other heroes, battle against dark forces, providing readers with thrilling adventures filled with humor, heart, and meaningful insights.
Gavin Thomas’s trilogy consists of three books, each focusing on different sets of tomboy and tomgirl characters. In the first book, readers meet Ayla, a petite, blonde tomboy with a strong build, and Jonathan, a tall and slim tomgirl with long auburn hair. The second book introduces Carrie-May, a tall and slim brunette tomboy, and Linus, a dwarf-sized, dark-skinned tomgirl who frequently wears leis and bangles. Finally, the third book features Anna-Lisa, a dwarf-sized, dark-skinned tomboy with a sideways cap, and Bud, a tall, slightly plump tomgirl with long blonde hair. These characters are not only diverse in appearance but also in personality, offering readers relatable and inspiring figures who embody the series’ core message of embracing one’s uniqueness.
The Tomboy And Tomgirl series stands out for its integration of various spiritual themes, drawing from Christian, Jewish, New Age, and Buddhist traditions. Archangel characters, based on actual archangels such as Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel, play significant roles in the storyline, adding a mystical element to the books. This fusion of spirituality with action-packed superhero narratives sets the series apart from other works in the genre, making it a compelling read for those interested in stories that combine entertainment with deeper philosophical and spiritual exploration.

In addition to its rich narrative tapestry, the series delivers a powerful anti-bullying message, encouraging readers to stand up against injustice and embrace their own and others’ differences. Gavin Thomas, who has autism, draws on his own life experiences to craft stories that resonate with readers from all walks of life. His portrayal of diverse characters with realistic personalities and struggles helps to foster empathy and understanding, making Tomboy And Tomgirl not just a source of entertainment but also a vehicle for positive social change.
The series has already garnered critical acclaim, earning Smith the Regal Summit 2024 Book Award in the fantasy category and the Persons of the Year Awards 2024 in the adventure, humor, and romance categories. These accolades highlight the series’ appeal across multiple genres and underscore its potential to connect with a wide audience. Thomas’s success is a testament to his talent and dedication as a writer, as well as to the universal themes of acceptance and love that his work embodies.
The Tomboy And Tomgirl series also features an array of supporting characters who add depth and dimension to the narrative. Heroes like Lilith, also known as Crystal Girl, Ashley (Rainbow Girl), and Bradley (Indigo Boy) join forces with the main characters to combat evil. These allies, each with their unique powers and personalities, enrich the story and provide additional perspectives on the challenges faced by the tomboys and tomgirls. The villains, including demons, devils, vampires, and evil mages, offer formidable opposition, creating a dynamic and engaging plot that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.
Astrology plays a subtle yet significant role in the series, with each character’s traits and personalities influenced by their zodiac signs. For example, Ayla is depicted as a Pisces with an Aries rising, highlighting her compassionate yet bold nature, while Jonathan, a Cancer with a Gemini rising, is characterized by his sensitivity and adaptability. This astrological aspect adds an intriguing layer to the characters, making them even more relatable and multidimensional.

As he continued writing, Thomas expanded the universe of his series, introducing new characters and plotlines that enriched the overall narrative.
