Down the Mysterly River is the children’s book debut of Bill
Willingham, the creator of the #1 New York Times bestselling
graphic novel series Fables. Complete with illustrations by
Fables artist Mark Buckingham, it is a spirited, highly
original tale of adventure, suspense, and everlasting
friendship. Max “the Wolf” is a top notch Boy Scout, an expert at
orienteering and a master of being prepared. So it is a
little odd that he suddenly finds himself, with no
recollection of his immediate past, lost in an unfamiliar
wood. Even odder still, he encounters a badger named
Banderbrock, a black bear named Walden, and McTavish the
Monster (who might also be an old barn cat)—all of whom
talk—and who are as clueless as Max. Before long, Max and his friends are on the run from a
relentless group of hunters and their deadly hounds. Armed
with powerful blue swords and known as the Blue Cutters,
these hunters capture and change the very essence of their
prey. For what purpose, Max can’t guess. But unless he can
solve the mystery of the strange forested world he’s landed
in, Max may find himself and his friends changed beyond
recognition, lost in a lost world…
