An astonishing, richly interwoven story from #1 bestselling author
Joanne M. Harris (The Gospel of Loki, Chocolat), beautifully
illustrated by the multiple award-winning Charles Vess (Stardust,
The Books of Earthsea). Long ago and far away, Far away and long
ago, The World was honeycomb, we know, The Worlds were honeycomb.
The beauty of stories is that you never know where they will take
you. Full of dreams and nightmares, Honeycomb is an entrancing
mosaic novel of original fairy tales from bestselling author Joanne
M. Harris and legendary artist Charles Vess in a collaboration
that's been years in the making. Dark, gripping, and brilliantly
imaginative, these magical tales will soon have you in their
thrall. Each original tale is a small piece of the larger picture -
a clue or a message, a theme, or a warning - interwoven with the
tale of the Lacewing King as he travels the Worlds and encounters a
multitude of characters: a toymaker who wants to create the perfect
wife; a princess whose heart is won by words, not actions; a tiny
dog whose confidence far outweighs his size; and the vengeful
Spider Queen, and deadly Harlequin . . . Turn the page, and be
swept up in the adventure. Perfect for fans of Sandman, The Djinn
in the Nightingale's Eye, Piranesi and The Midnight Library, this
tour de force is a beautiful achievement, from two exceptional
creators at the top of their game.
