Simultaneous paperback publication of the 1st edition, 1st printing. "Brimming with a rare blend of magical awe and heartwarming fun, and populated by a cast of unforgettable characters, here is a wondrous adventure, a shimmering fantasy of a time not so far from our own and of an astonishing odyssey into a vast unknown. Gone are the wild grasses and rolling meadows. Gone are the multicolored quilts of autumn and tender greens of spring. Only one lonely forest survives on Earth. It sits alone, nearly forgotten. Until, remarkably, frighteningly, the forest begins to grow, and grow, rapidly reclaiming the Earth. Mankind's very survival is suddenly, strangely at stake. Something has to be done. This is the story of what is done. The story of an unlikely group of Crusaders who venture boldly into the heart of this dark and towering world of hidden wonders to see if they can learn the key to the forest's incredible growth, but instead make a breathtaking discovery." Pristine, clean & tight copy, unread in Very Good condition. No creases in spine, but some slight tanning to the pages, o/w quite presentable.

Otherwise, this is a solid, tight, bright Very Good copy.
