FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

               HH Castle-Mac Publishing Releases Wrestling Sequel

ST LOUIS PARK, MN — HH Castle-Mac, publisher of the 2008 release To Be The Best, by H. L. Hertel, announced today the launch of the sequel, To Be The Best: REMATCH (2011, HH Castle-Mac Publishing).

“We’re excited to continue the story of high school wrestlers and brothers, Ron and Nick Castle, as they pursue their shared dream of winning the state championship,” says Hertel, who cited strong support from readers of his first novel, To Be The Best, as a significant incentive for finishing the sequel.

In addition, readers from other walks of life have reached out to Hertel to share the first book’s impact on their lives – parents, coaches, teachers, librarians, and friends and relatives of wrestlers. “I have been pleased by the positive feedback I have received from readers of all ages, some who have not had any involvement with wrestling,” notes Hertel. “Yet they found the portrayal of the Riverside wrestling team, coaches and community to be of great interest and inspiration, and they were excited to share the book with young people in their lives.”

While REMATCH includes more mature themes than To Be The Best, especially around the character of Sean MacCallister, the likeable Riverside assistant coach who deals with more than his fair share of life’s challenges, the target audience for the sequel continues to be the high school wrestler.

“At the end of the day, I am confident that the values inherent in Sean MacCallister, along with his ability to persevere and learn from some poor choices, will not only capture the minds and hearts of school-aged readers but serve as a guidepost for capturing their potential to be the best,” adds Hertel.

The popularity of To Be The Best, the life lessons the book presents, and the appeal of the three main characters – Ron and Nick Castle and Sean MacCallister, all live on and bind readers to the sequel, REMATCH. Like the original, REMATCH is available in both Kindle and traditional paper formats.  Order your copy today at www.amazon.com.
