The War of the Woods

In The War of the Woods, the cataclysmic finale of the Croswald Series, Ivy battles her way to the Dark Queen, but she may be too little too late... Mythical dragons, powerful stones, family curses, new worlds, and ancient magic populate the series finale in a rich fantasy world perfect for middle grade readers. In the final battle between good and evil, there can only be one Queen.

With her third year of school interrupted and canceled, Ivy Lovely is trapped inside the Halls with the growing sensation that she must break free. Through an elaborate network of dwarf tunnels that no human has ever walked, she hopes to find the mythical Dwarflin and regain the final segment of the Kindred Stone. The nature of her friendship with Fyn shifts with sudden news and, at every turn, the evil and peril grow. It will take everything that Ivy has learned about magic (and herself) and more to defeat the Queen in her forest stronghold.

For those who wished that Narnia, Harry Potter, and Alice in Wonderland could go on forever, Croswald opens a whole new world of magic. Recommended as a read-aloud for families and an independent middle-grade fantasy read, The Crowns of Croswald is an award-winning, four-book series that will carry readers to a whimsical world that they won’t want to leave.
