Publisher's Synopsis
Once, in a cottage above the cliffs on the Dark Sea
of Darkness, there lived three children and their trusty
dog Nugget. Janner Igiby, his brother Tink, their crippled
sister Leeli are gifted children as all children are, loved
well by a noble mother and ex-pirate grandfather. But they
will need all their gifts and all that love to survive the
evil pursuit of the venomous Fangs of Dang who have crossed
the dark sea to rule the land with malice and pursue the
Igibys who hold the secret to the lost legend and jewels
of
good King Wingfeather of the Shining Isle of Anniera.
Andrew Peterson spins a quirky and riveting tale of the
Igibys’ extraordinary journey from Glipwood’s Dragon Day
Festival and a secret hidden in the Books and Crannies
Bookstore, past the terrifying Black Carriage, clutches of
the horned hounds and loathsome toothy cows surrounding
AnkleJelly Manor, through the Glipwood Forest and
mysterious treehouse of Peet the Sock Man (known for a
little softshoe and wearing tattered socks on his hands
and arms), to the very edge of the Ice Prairies.
Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, On
the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness presents a world of
wonder and a tale children of all ages will cherish,
families can read aloud, and readers’ groups are sure to
discuss for its layers of meaning about life’s true
treasure and tangle of the beautiful and horrible, temporal
and eternal, and good and bad. Our Comment
