Martin the Warrior: A Novel of Redwall

Martin the Warrior: A Novel of Redwall
On the shore of the Eastern Sea, in a cold stone fortress, a stoat named Badrang holds dozens of innocent creatures as slaves, part of his scheme to build an empire where he will rule as unquestioned tyrant. Among those slaves is a mouse named Martin who has a warrior’s heart and a burning desire for freedom—freedom not only for himself, but for all of Badrang’s victims. There is no risk he will not take, no battle he will not fight, to end the stoat’s evil reign and in the process regain the sword of his father, Luke the Warrior—the sword that Badrang stole from him when he was but a lad! Martin the Warrior is the sixth book in Brian Jacques' long-running Redwall series of novels. Taking place before the original Redwall, Martin the Warrior is a prequel to the series at-large.

The Secret History of Hobgoblins

The Secret History of Hobgoblins
Professor Ari Berk returns to reveal another trove of magical history to his avid readers: the history of the humble hobgoblin.

Every house holds a mystery.
 
Behind the door, beside the stove, under the stairs, along the roads -- Hobgoblins have been the helpful housemates, neighbors, and friends of humans for thousands of years. But beware! When humans forget their obligations to the Secret Folk and break the Laws of Hospitality, even the friendliest Hobgoblin may turn tricksy.
 
Here find tellings of domestic Brownies, Lobs-Lie-By-The-Fire, Roman Lars, Japanese Tsukumogami, medieval Portunes, playful pixies, orderly Tomten, and the famous Robin Goodfellow, as well as grimmer folk: wandering Willow O' The Wisps, wrathful Red Caps, and bold Boggarts.
 
Join the Order of the Golden Quills as it presents the secret history and long lost lore of the Hobgoblins who dwell in that most mysterious of all lands: home.

Richly illustrated (by Alan Lee, Larry MacDougall, Gary Chalk, Virginia Lee, Fernando Molinari and Douglas Carrel), this folkloric volume includes special features such as several mini-booklet flaps, a gatefold, and a lavish cover with embossing and foil.
