Beschreibung

PLEASE READ FULLY! A very attractive 5th printing SIGNED BY SUZANNE directly to the title page along with a brief inscription and "Fly You High!" BUT: someone lined out Daryl's name and wrote a new name above, subsequently erased but still visible. Book is otherwise near-fine with pristine text (appears unread) and colorful boards. Only mild wear on the dust jacket; looks terrific with a new mylar cover added. Expedited and international shipping are welcome; signed by author.

Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This irresistible first novel tells the story of a quiet boy who embarks on a dangerous quest in order to fulfill his destiny -- and find his father -- in a strange world beneath New York City.

When Gregor falls through a grate in the laundry room of his apartment building, he hurtles into the dark Underland, where spiders, rats, cockroaches coexist uneasily with humans. This world is on the brink of war, and Gregor's arrival is no accident. A prophecy foretells that Gregor has a role to play in the Underland's uncertain future. Gregor wants no part of it -- until he realizes it's the only way to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance. Reluctantly, Gregor embarks on a dangerous adventure that will change both him and the Underland forever.
