Author: Paul StewartPlot Synopsis: Twig has always been told he was one of the woodtrolls he was raised by, but in actuality he was abandoned at birth in the dark and forbidding Deepwoods. Upon learning he is not what he thought, he sets out to discover his true identity. However, Twig does the one thing woodtrolls never do: he strays from the path. Now, attempting to survive in the terrible woods, nothing is impossible.
REVIEW: Wow! Hold onto them hats 'n' glasses, folks! This book was a thrill ride if I ever saw (read) one. Filled with nonstop action, it's a great read. Periodically peppered with illustrations, the story comes to life while you read. One element I really enjoyed was experiencing the creative setting with completely original creatures. The one thing that kind of bothered me was that the real goal didn't come in sight until about the middle, so at times it seemed as if Twig was basically just wandering around aimlessly (which he kind of was sometimes). Complete with a touching end and interesting animals, this book is fantastic.
