The Epic Conclusion to the Wildwood Chronicles
From Colin Meloy, lead singer of the Decemberists, and Carson Ellis, acclaimed illustrator of The Mysterious Benedict Society, comes the stunning conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Wildwood Chronicles. As the fate of Wildwood hangs in the balance, Prue and Curtis draw closer to their goal of bringing together a pair of exiled toy makers in order to reanimate a mechanical boy prince. In this final book, Meloy continues to expand and enrich the magical world and cast of characters he has created, while Ellis once again brings that world to life with her gorgeous artwork.
Separated from Curtis, Prue travels alongside the talking bear Esben as bandits, the Curtis sisters, and allies across the Impassable Wilderness face multiple threats to Wildwood's survival. When the Dowager Governess returns with plans to take control of the realm, Prue must rescue the bandits, discover the toy makers, and restore the mechanical prince, all while keeping the protective boundary between forest and city intact. Through trials of sacrifice and forgiveness, Prue and her friends learn what it truly means to stand together against darkness.
