wildwood

If only August 30, 2011 would come sooner.  Colin Meloy (of The Decemberists) and wife, illustrator, Carson Ellis are releasing a fairytale book called Wildwood.  There's not a whole lot of information about the book out there, besides a couple images of Ellis' illustrations and a couple of reviews by acclaimed writers.

 This is what my favorite author, Michael Chabon (The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay) had to say:

“Dark and whimsical, with a true and uncanny sense of otherworldliness, WILDWOOD is the heir to a great tradition of stories of wild childhood adventure. It snatched me up and carried me off into a world I didn’t want to leave.” (Michael Chabon)

Special thanks to Husband for finding this information and after much debate divulged it to me.
