The second book of the fantasy series about adventures of a peaceful people, a continuation of the novel “Quendel. Book 1. Gloomy Forest.” This dark fairy tale is based on German legends and myths and will appeal to fans of epic fantasy such as John R. R. Tolkien’s “The Hobbit” and Neil Gaiman’s worlds. After the terrible Wolf Night, when the borders between Holmgorye and the Land of Shadows disappeared, quendels returned to preparing for the annual Mask Festival in the city of Baumelburg. But the danger hasn’t gone away, and fog still hangs over the hills. Wise Odilius warns them of ancient legends, but they aren’t ready for a new storm—one even more furious and frightening than before.
