Well theres a few. It's set in on the Edge, and starts off with a kid named Twig who strays into the woods, and has all great of fantastical adventures. Stuff happens like being eaten by a bloodoak tree, and becoming a sky pirate, as well as that floating city breaking off. I loved them personally.

DUDE IVE READ THEM ALL (or most)

they were pretty epic when i was younger. the first one is amazing. the one about the twilight woods and the boardwalk is good too. the world is very imaginative and it always had me craving for more. also the illustrations are top notch. always bummed me out how far and few between they are in the US. and the US versions have gay covers. The last one i read, **SPOILERS* twig had just sailed his ship off the edge and into the abyss and was in search of his dad. im assuming there must have been at least one more book after that haha.

tl;dr; good serious. its young adult but definitely worth a check. this is one e/lit/e that loves it.

>>	Anonymous Wed May 19 23:55:51 2010 No.691545 Fuck, I read these a while ago. They were really solid young-adult fantasy. I'd recommend them.
