Beyond the Deepwoods

fullDescription

Far, far away, jutting out into the emptiness beyond, lies the Edge. Filled with strange peoples and terrifying creatures, this is a world unlike any other, where action–and danger–await at every turn. Abandoned at birth in the dangerous Deepwoods, young Twig has been brought up by a family of woodtrolls. He has always thought he was one of them, until, one cold night, he finds out he’s not. Soon he sets off to find out who he really is, and he does the unthinkable–he strays from the path.
So begins the heart-stopping adventure that will take Twig through a nightmarish world of goblins and trogs, bloodthirsty beasts and flesh-eating trees. Only two things keep Twig going: the hopes of discovering his true identity and finding his destiny.
Step to the Edge and enter a thrilling new fantasy series filled with amazing characters and unimaginable adventures—and see for yourself what lies beyond!

reviews

1. • premium: True
   • source:
   • content: Clive Mantle's talent lends the characters of the Deepwoods distinctive vocal interpretations. As the story of Twig (who thinks he's a wood troll) unfolds, the listener is taken on a journey that is familiar, although the twists of fantasy bring new perspective to the tasks of searching for one's identity, overcoming obstacles, and struggling with enemies. Mantle's excellent and droll reading enhances the combination of description, humor, and wonderful characters. Sky Pirates, Rot Suckers, and Gross Mother are only a few of the creatures Twig meets, and young listeners who love descriptions of disgusting events such as compost dunking will thoroughly enjoy Twig's mishaps.

   • content: Twig is, well, different. And that's certainly going some in the world of the Edge and the Deepwoods, full of wood trolls, goblins, beasts, and pitfalls of innumerable variety. Clive Mantle's genius brings verve and believability to characters and atmosphere alike, rendering the story a rich experience for children, as well as adults, who enjoy dramatic flair along with an intricate plot. In search of his proper place in the world, poor Twig has such rotten luck that even a dedicated listener might get a trifle testy, but the narration is so wonderful that it's worthwhile to hang on every word. Capable of inspiring shivers, tears, and much in-between, Mantle is the hidden heart of the Deepwoods. P.H.M. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

     Starred review from June 21, 2004
     This charming British series, the Edge Chronicles, makes a transatlantic crossing with its launch title, a handsomely designed paper-over-board volume with pen-and-inks by the authors. In poetic prose, Stewart and Riddell invent the magical realm that culminates at the Edge (a precipice that resembles "the figurehead of a mighty stone ship"). The flow of water that ceaselessly falls off the Edge originates in the Deepwoods, where "countless tribes and strange groupings scratch a living in the dappled sunlight and moonglow beneath its lofty canopy." Twig, who is nearly 13, lives with a family of woodtrolls, but his non-troll appearance (except for the pointy ears) marks him as an outcast; it is not a total surprise when his "Mother-Mine" reveals that he was dropped "at the foot of our tree" as an infant. And so begins a journey that leads Twig to his destiny, as the ominous caterbird tells him, which lies "beyond the Deepwoods." The narrative will cast a spell over readers from the beginning with its utterly odd, off-kilter sense of logic and a vocabulary that is equal parts Dr. Seuss and Lewis Carroll ("Fromps coughed and spat, quarms squealed, while the great banderbear beat its monstrous hairy chest and yodelled to its mate"). The detailed artwork with numerous comic touches also offer clues to Twig's parentage (he bears a certain resemblance to a dreaded sky pirate who makes an early appearance). Twig winds up at the Edge, and his decision at the chasm leads him to self- discovery—and nicely sets up the next adventure, Stormchaser
     (-75070-6
     ; also releasing this month), which sees Twig beginning his life as a sky pirate. Ages 10-12.
