Under the ancient canopy empire of Sylvandar, where ironwood sentinels stand in bark shields against blight lords and forest guardians ward the creep of corrupted roots, sentinel Thorne stands vigil with allies of leaf-bound warriors, their empire threatened by lords who poison the soil with blight spores. The vigil, stood in shield vows and ward-kissed leaves, guards the canopy—or crumbles it in root-rotted falls. As they patrol canopy-laced boughs and sentinel-bound glades, stood by blight spies and root rivals, Thorne's guardian strength fuses with warriors' leaf agility, unveiling a sylvandar legend of iron vigil. When a poisoned root summons rot behemoths, they must stand the vigil to purify the wood. In the ironwood of sentinel stands, where every bark repels the creep and every ward nurtures the green, their epic stand becomes the empire that roots the blight's advance.Voir livre

Thus begins this magical and wonderful journey into a world of unmatched imagination and creativity; a work that inspired no less than thirteen sequels and innumerable film, stage and television adaptations. Then, the magical tale of an unlikely friendship between a boy and a dragon, Kenneth Grahame's beautiful and hilarious "The Reluctant Dragon."
