Local author Louis Sachar—the iconic, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Holes—is back with his first novel for adults: THE MAGICIAN OF TIGER CASTLE (August 5 | Ace Hardcover). Sachar will be celebrating the release with an event at Barnes & Noble Huntington Beach on August 7 at 7:00pm.

Louis Sachar grew up in Tustin, CA and now spends several months of every year in the Newport Beach area. He enjoys jogging on the beach nearly every morning, and while Louis hasn’t ever been a surfer, he has also enjoyed reconnecting with his high school friends and learning about that world—many of them still surf at age 71!

THE MAGICIAN OF TIGER CASTLE is special, and not only because it’s Sachar’s first deviation from middle-grade books. It’s the novel the world needs right now: earnest, daring, quirky, and hopeful, sure to become a modern fairytale classic. THE MAGICIAN OF TIGER CASTLE reads like The Princess Bride (if the story were being told by Miracle Max) and follows a princess who is doomed to a loveless marriage, her true love who is sentenced to death, and the much-maligned magician to the kingdom of Esquaveta who is determined to save them both.

About the Author   

LOUIS SACHAR is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Holes, which won the Newbery Medal, the National Book Award, and the Christopher Award, as well as Stanley Yelnats' Survival Guide to Camp Green Lake; Small Steps, winner of the Schneider Family Book Award; and The Cardturner, a Publishers Weekly Best Book, a Parents' Choice Gold Award recipient, and an ALA-YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults Book. His books for younger readers include There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom, The Boy Who Lost His Face, Dogs Don't Tell Jokes, and the Marvin Redpost series, among many others.

Kaskade Brings Sun Soaked Back To Its Original SoCal Stomping Grounds

 

Multi-GRAMMY-nominated DJ and producer, Kaskade, officially announces the return of one of California’s most beloved beach days, Sun Soaked. On Saturday, September 6, 2025, in partnership with Insomniac, the festival will make its triumphant return to Huntington State Beach for a one-day, one-of-a-kind fan experience.

After a seven-year hiatus from the festival’s original Southern California roots, Kaskade has officially teamed up with Insomniac to bring the best names in dance music to the sandy shores of Huntington State Beach. Headlined and created by Kaskade, the festival was born of his love of music and fueled by his passion for the outdoors – Sun Soaked turns nature into the ultimate co-headliner.

Fans can expect a day of sun, sand and ocean, paired with unforgettable performances from Kaskade, Meduza, SKILAH, Sidepiece, Malaa, Anabel Englund, Walker & Royce, MPH, and MORE – offering guests a beach day like none before.

From Kaskade: “Sun Soaked is a shape shifting project. The first year we put it together with grit, sand, music and a lot of tenacity. The second year, we went bigger – and it got better. Bringing it back to Southern California now after seven years is so exciting for me. I’m a beach guy, I want my toes in the sand and the sun on my face while I do what I love – and I’m hoping there are some people who want to share that with me.”

What began as an event for 12,000 attendees in 2017 swiftly evolved into a crowd topping over 30,000 fans in 2018, selling out in under 30 minutes. Today, Sun Soaked returns to the for its most thrilling installation yet, presented by Insomniac and curated by Kaskade to bring fans an unparalleled experience, setting the stage for a new California tradition at the intersection of culture, entertainment and lifestyle.

Registration for pre-sale begins now, at SunSoakedOfficial.com. Pre-sale begins on Thursday, May 8, 10:00AM PST. General on-sale ticketing begins on Friday, May 9, 10:00AM PST.
