Skinwalker Studios Launches Kickstarter Campaign For ‘Monsterwood: Book 3’
by Brendan M. Allen
The third volume in Skinwalker Studios’ Monsterwood franchise is incoming via Kickstarter. Monsterwood: Book 3 is available to order as an omnibus that includes the first two books in an active campaign with four weeks remaining.
The King and Queen are dead. Long live the princess?
Monsterwood is a tale of regicide and its chaotic aftermath. The King and Queen of Magog are murdered, and the monstrous subjects of Monsterwood shoulder the blame. Infant Princess Jocasta is left as the heir to the throne, with the ominous Tiberius as Regent. In the buildup to her Sweet Sixteen, Jocasta is determined to return to the Monsterwood to complete the ritual needed to complete her coronation. Except Tiberius forbids it, due to dangers that lie in wait.
The streets of Magog are no less dangerous, especially for those with Mahru heritage, who are oppressed by Tiberius and his elite Zumari forces. Teenager Jovis has gotten into trouble one too many times, and his only safe haven is Monsterwood. When he encounters a disguised Jocasta and her companion, Scrag, traveling there, he boldly assures them they won’t make it far without him.
There is more danger in the Monsterwood, and Magog, than the trio ever realized, and none if it is quite what they were told.
