Overview
Step into a hidden wilderness tucked inside modern-day Portland, Oregon with this complete paperback box set of the Wildwood Chronicles. Written by Colin Meloy, lead singer of the Decemberists, and illustrated by Carson Ellis, this New York Times bestselling fantasy trilogy follows twelve-year-old Prue McKeel into the Impassable Wilderness, a forest realm of talking animals, warring factions, and ancient magic. Spanning Wildwood, Under Wildwood, and Wildwood Imperium, this collection delivers hundreds of pages of adventure and hand-drawn artwork in one sturdy, gift-ready bundle perfect for middle-grade bookshelves.

About the Books
The Wildwood Chronicles begins when twelve-year-old Prue McKeel's baby brother Mac is snatched by a murder of crows and carried into the Impassable Wilderness, a forested, forbidden pocket of land just outside Portland, Oregon that most adults believe is nothing more than an overgrown industrial zone. Determined to bring Mac home, Prue and her classmate Curtis cross into Wildwood and discover a hidden civilization of talking animals, bandits, mystics, and warring political factions, each with their own claim on the forest's future, mixing political intrigue with old-fashioned adventure storytelling. Across three books, Colin Meloy expands this richly imagined world, introducing new regions, rival kingdoms, and deeper layers of Wildwood's history and magic, while Prue and Curtis are pulled further from their ordinary lives and into the fate of the forest itself. Under Wildwood widens the scope of the saga, following Curtis as he trains among the forest's bandits while a sinister industrialist plots to exploit Wildwood's resources and Wildwood Imperium brings the trilogy to its conclusion as old alliances shift and the future of the Wilderness hangs in the balance. Throughout the series, Carson Ellis's intricate black-and-white illustrations and full-color plates bring Wildwood's creatures and landscapes vividly to life, giving the books the feel of a classic illustrated fantasy adventure for readers who love immersive, animal-populated worlds.
