Listen my children as I introduce to you the sage of the Wingfeather family, with its twists and turns, strange creatures (trolls, quill diggles, and ridgerunners); stranger traditions (the Dragon Day Festival, whistletharps, and eating maggotloaf—anyone?); wildly unique characters you can trust (—or can you?); perilous adventures (battles and rescues), and even more perilous dangers. Beware of the Toothy Cows and Gnag the Nameless! Follow the adventures of the four Igiby children as they discover the truth about themselves and escape the Fangs of Dang. Who will open the Fane of Fire? Full of engaging action, plentiful word play, and tongue in cheek humor, this modern literary treasure is available in individual volumes and also in a 4-volume hardcover set. The series includes occasional poetry and ancient documents, illustrations, maps, and more. A wonderful read aloud as well, each chapter makes a brief and marvelously enjoyable read (with or without accents and pirate voices). Spin-off novellas from this popular series include additional Wingfeather Tales, Pembrick’s Creaturepedia, the Ranger’s Guide to Glipwood Forest, and the children’s picture book, The Prince of Yorsha Doon. ~ Ruth

Publisher's Description of Wingfeather Saga Softcover Boxed Set Volumes 1-4
This collection of Andrew Peterson’s Wingfeather Saga includes all four novels in paperback: On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness, North! Or Be Eaten, The Monster in the Hollows, and The Warden and the Wolf King.
In a cottage near the edge of the cliffs above the Dark Sea of Darkness live three siblings: Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby. The trio unknowingly hold the secret to a lost legend and the Jewels of Anniera. But across the Dark Sea lurks an evil tyrant who plots the destruction of the land.
To survive, the Igibys must flee their home and travel through deadly forests, dark cities, and frozen wastes, pursued relentlessly by monsters (hungry!), the venomous Fangs (poisonous!), and a multitude of villains (scoundrels, trolls, horned hounds, and the like). In this epic battle between good and evil, the intrepid heroes must confront danger and cling to one another in order to fight back the looming shadows that threaten to overtake everything they love.
