AMULET – BOOK ONE: THE STONEKEEPER
Kazu Kibuishi
Scholastic, 192 Pages, Colour

After tragedy strikes their family, Emily and Navin move with their mother to the old home of their great–grandfather. The strange house proves to be dangerous. Before long, a sinister creature lures the kids’ mom through a door in the basement. Emily and Navin, desperate not to lose her, follow her into an underground world inhabited by demons, robots, and talking animals. There, Emily learns that she is a Stonekeeper and essential to the survival of this world, and that her incredible story is only just beginning.

ADVENTURE TIME ENCYCLOPEDIA
Martin Olson | Pendleton Ward
Titan, 160 Pages, Colour

Compiled by the Lord of Evil himself, The Adventure Time Encylopaedia is the first official guide to the show’s beloved characters and world.

Fans of all ages will love this side-splittingly funny, complex, and intricate love letter to the series.

ACE Opinion: “Told from the point of view of Marceline’s dad, the Adventure Time Encyclopedia is an alternative to the comic book and a hilarious read which would entertain anybody on Christmas day.”
