More copies of this ISBN:The Plucker: An Illustrated Novelby Brom
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:World-renowned dark fantasy artist Brom intimately combines his dramatic storytelling with his uniquely arresting images in this illustrated novel. He creates a work of striking imagination, a world where fairy-tale tradition collides with vileness and depravity, love and heroism, suffering and sacrifice. In the shadowy land of make-believe, Jack and his box are stuck beneath the bed with the other castaway toys, forced to face a bitter truth: children grow up and toys are left behind. Jack believes this is the worst thing that can happen.
But when the Plucker, a malevolent spirit, is set loose upon the world of make-believe and Jack is thrust into the unlikely role of defending Thomas, the very child who abandoned him, he finds out there is worse that can befall a toy — far worse. As desperation mounts, Jack is thrown together with Thomas's other toys — Monkey, the Nutcracker, and the ethereally beautiful porcelain doll Snow Angel — as they struggle to rise above their simple roles as playthings in an effort to save the boy they love.
