James McCann grew up on the icy plains of Manitoba, where he spent most of his teenage years reading comics and training in tae kwon do. In 2002 he came to the West Coast, where he's worked as a book-seller and a workshop leader, mentoring youth in creative writing. James lives in West Vancouver, British Columbia.
Twelve-year-old Arthur loves his summers in Birch Bay, a quirky seaside village where he spends all of his time with his best friend Lea. They play video games together, hang out at the beach and explore on their bikes.
This year is different, though. First, Arthur learns it will be Lea's last summer in Birch Bay. Then their freedom is threatened by the Immortals, the swim team who torments all the local kids.
Lea and Arthur decide to take a stand. Using their video-game network, they gather a small army of kids who've had enough of the Immortals.
Armed with paintball guns and shields made of garbage can lids, the Spartan army takes on the Immortals. Their goal is control of a treehouse, but the prize is knowing they stood up for themselve
A humorous retelling of the Greek battle of Thermopylae, The Three Spartans is a story of friendship and belonging and of standing up for what's right—even when the odds are against you.
