Book Synopsis for Trollhunters:
"You are food. Those muscles you flex to walk, lift,
and talk? They're patties of meat topped with chewy tendon. That skin you've
paid so much attention to in mirrors? It's delicious to the right tongues, a
casserole of succulent tissue. And those bones that give you the strength to
make your way in the world? They rattle between teeth as the marrow is sucked
down slobbering throats. These facts are unpleasant but useful. There are
things out there, you see, that don't cower in holes to be captured by us and
cooked over our fires. These things have their own ways of trapping their
kills, their own fires, their own appetites."
Jim Sturges is your typical teen in suburban San Bernardino—
one with an embarrassingly overprotective dad, a best friend named
"Tubby" who shares his hatred of all things torturous (like gym
class), and a crush on a girl who doesn't know he exists. But everything
changes for Jim when a 45-year old mystery resurfaces, threatening the lives of
everyone in his seemingly sleepy town. Soon Jim has to team up with a band of
unlikely (and some un-human) heroes to battle the monsters he never knew
existed.
From the minds of horror geniuses Guillermo del Toro and
Daniel Kraus comes a new illustrated novel about the fears that move in unseen
places.
