From Colin Meloy, lead singer of The Decemberists, and Carson Ellis, acclaimed illustrator of The Mysterious Benedict Society, comes Wildwood Imperium (Balzer & Bray/HarperTeen), the stunning third book in their bestselling fantasy-adventure series, the Wildwood Chronicles.

Wildwood Imperium is a rich, moving, and dazzling story, by turns funny and profound — steeped in the classics of children's literature while remaining stunningly original.
