The Firelight - Candle

I had a dream last night.

In this dream, I received a box. Within this box were two books. A semi-purple book and a sandy-gold book. I chose to look at the sandy-gold book. In blue pen, in the center of the book cover, was written - The Firelight- -Candle- It was in handwriting, but also seemingly printed on the cover.

I chose to do as anyone would do. I started in the middle. I was able to read the first few sentences before my mind went into movie mode. This is where I learned that there were three main characters. Grant, a tall, sandy haired man, similar to Tallahassee from Zombieland, if you're familiar with him, Steel, a seven year old boy with short brown hair, and a bubblegum pink alien I have thus decided to name Yakka. He looks like someone took bubblegum and stretched it out. They were in an air duct.

When Steel pushed the metal grate out I realized that they were just outside a nursery for little baby aliens. Yeah. That was surprising...

So I guess my question is, if anybody's ever read a book with a castle and a bubblegum pink lanky alien in it. That has some major plot idea centered around a castle.

A little bit of what Yakka would look like.
