Beyond the Deepwoods

Young Twig lives in the Deepwoods, among the woodtrolls, but he isn't one of them. In a brave attempt to find out where he truly belongs, Twig wanders into the mysterious, fascinating and sometimes hazardous world beyond the Deepwoods. In his travels he encounters myriad peculiar creatures, like his wise guardian, the caterbird; the slaughterers, a peaceful race who butcher animals for their livelihood; and the vicious, bile-swilling rotsucker. Always mindful of the Gloamglozer, whose presence haunts the thoughts of all the inhabitants of the Edge, Twig pursues his quest until he discovers his roots, not among the trees, but in the skies. With his new allies, the sky pirates, Twig prepares to embark on his next adventure.

'I want a Banderbear!'

Beyond the Deepwood is the story of Twig, and adopted wood troll who does the unthinkable and strays from the path! The adventure that follows is full of imaginative and likeable characters from Sky Pirates to meat-eating trees who both help and hinder him in his quest to find himself and his way out of the Deepwood. A well written and unputdownable story. I want a Banderbear! A jolly good adventure!
