Illustrated by Carson Ellis.

A young girl’s midnight séance awakens a long-slumbering malevolent spirit...

A band of runaway orphans allies with an underground collective of saboteurs and plans a daring rescue of their friends, imprisoned in the belly of an industrial wasteland...

Two old friends draw closer to their goal of bringing together a pair of exiled toymakers in order to reanimate a mechanical boy prince...

As the fate of Wildwood hangs in the balance.

The third book in the Wildwood Chronicles is even more rich and dazzling and surprising than the first two novels. Colin Meloy is at the height of his gifts with Wildwood Imperium, sealing the series’ destiny as a new classic.
