Five captivating books! One thrilling adventure!
It all started with a mysterious letter left at a tiny bookstore for authors Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black. Its closing lines: "We just want people to know about this. The stuff that has happened to us could happen to anyone." Little could Tony and Holly imagine the remarkable adventure that awaited them as they followed three children and a fascinating old book into a world filled with elves, goblins, dwarves, trolls, and a fantastical menagerie of other creatures.
The wildest part is that in entering that world, they didn't leave this one!
