I LOVE THIS BOOK SERIES!!! 🚨SPOILERS🚨The Wingfeather Saga (book 3) is about Janner, Kalmar, and their little sister Leeli. They and their mother Nia, their grandfather Podo (who used to be a pirate), their unckle Arthrum, and a book colector from Glipwood named Oskar have set sail to the Green Hollows to hide from Gnag the Namless but the moment they arive the people of the Green Hollows already don't like something about them. Janner's little brother, the high king of Anniera, is a Grey Fang like the many they have fought in the past. After a bit Nia used a Hollish way to set her Fangish sun free but under a condition, if Kalmar breaks a law, Nia will take the same punishment wether she was involved or not. Though while in the process Arthrum left for what he thought would be for the good of the rest of the Wingfeather family. Soon the Wingfeather family makes their home at a large house called Chimney Hill aswell as go to a school. While there they get to pick their guilds. Leeli picked the houndry (where she learns to train dogs), Kalmar picked the Durgen guild (where he learns to fight), and Janner picked- well- he was forced to pick the Durgen guild aswell so he could protect his brother incase things got bad because he is the throne warden. They stay in the Green Hollows into the fall and everything is normal- untill one night when a monster called a cloven creeps by the large home. After that night Janner heard a lot less of Kalmar's snoring. One day Kalmar showed Janner a cave he found in the prarie. Though little did he know Kalmar was hiding a big, ugly, smelly secret inside the cave he thought was just an empty cave. Suddenly, night after night more and more animals are taken from the farmers of the Green Hollows till one night, Janner notices his brother has been sneeking out of the house each night. One snowy night, Janner fallowed his brother's tracks to find his own brother was responsible for all those lost animals. Kalmar brought Janner to the cave to reviel his secret, he was hiding the cloven they saw that night. He was nursing it back to health (it was wounded because someone tried to end its life the night they first saw it) because he said when he looked into it's eyes, he saw himself. He had been taken into custidy that very moring to hear him and his mother would be exicuted- for eating a girl? He had taken the animals... but he sertianly didn't eat any one. Especally the house maids daughter, Bonnie. Just before they where going to be exacuted, the cloven Kalmar helped came walking in with a smile on his face and a little girl in his hands. The girl Kalmar was accused of eating. But just as it came in with the little girl, he was taken down by the Hollows fulk. But not even the cloven took the little girl. It was an 87 year old man named Bonifer Sqoon, the old man who gave them Chimney Hill, had risen aginst them and brought in an army of Grey Fangs. After a bit of fighting, Janner realized this cloven wasn't just a monster, it was his father he thought was dead his whole life. And just before the Grey Fangs and Bonifer where about to sail off to Throg with them, their cloven father and their mother (who is still a human) raced to the rescue. Their father had been badly hurt and they decided to grant him his last wish. To sail the Anniera. Though they turned around when their father's life had come to an end, Janner was able to live a short dream he would have never thought possible in a million years: to sail on a boat with his father. When ther arived back at the Green Hollows, the began making plans to go to war with Gnag the Nameless. I hope your found this review helpfull! God bless!
The Monster in the Hollows (The Wingfeather Saga)
By Andrew Peterson
Now in hardcover for the first time, featuring all-new illustrations! Things are about to go from bad to wolf in the howlingly entertaining third book of the Wingfeather Saga.
Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby, the Lost Jewels of Anniera, are hiding from Gnag the Nameless in the Green Hollows, one of the few places in the land of Aerwiar not overrun by the Fangs of Dang. But there's a big problem. Janner's little brother--heir to the throne of Anniera--has grown a tail. And gray fur. Not to mention two pointed ears and long, dangerous fangs. To the suspicious folk of the Green Hollows, he looks like a monster.
But Janner knows better. His brother isn't as scary as he looks. He's perfectly harmless. Isn't he?
Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, The Monster in the Hollows is a tale children of all ages will cherish, families can read aloud, and readers' groups are sure to enjoy discussing for its many layers of meaning. Extra features include new interior illustrations from Joe Sutphin, funny footnotes, a map of the fantastical world, inventive appendices, and fanciful line art in the tradition of the original Frank L. Baum Wizard of Oz storybooks.
