Subverting convention, award-winning creators M. T. Anderson and Eugene Yelchin pair up for an anarchic, outlandish, and deeply political saga of warring elf and goblin kingdoms. Uptight elfin historian Brangwain Spurge is on a mission: survive being catapulted across the mountains into goblin territory, deliver a priceless peace offering to their mysterious dark lord, and spy on the goblin kingdom -- from which no elf has returned alive in more than a hundred years. Brangwain's host, the goblin archivist Werfel, is delighted to show Brangwain around. They should be the best of friends, but a series of extraordinary double crosses, blunders, and cultural misunderstandings throws these two bumbling scholars into the middle of an international crisis that may spell death for them -- and war for their nations. Witty mixed media illustrations show Brangwain's furtive missives back to the elf kingdom, while Werfel's determinedly unbiased narrative tells an entirely different story. A hilarious and biting social commentary that could only come from the likes of National Book Award winner M. T. Anderson and Newbery Honoree Eugene Yelchin, this tale is rife with thrilling action and visual humor . . . and a comic disparity that suggests the ultimate victor in a war is perhaps not who won the battles, but who gets to write the history.Binding Type: Hardcover

The quality is excellent for the price
Size: 10, Color: Silver-pu
I am absolutely in love with these DREAM PAIRS double bowknot heels—they are stunning, elegant, and even more beautiful in person! From the moment I opened the box, I could tell these shoes were going to be a showstopper. The double bow design is so feminine and eye-catching, and the added crystal rhinestone detailing gives just the right touch of sparkle without being over the top.
The open square toe is super flattering and modern, and it gives the shoe a stylish, high-end look. The ankle strap adds extra stability and keeps the heel secure while walking, dancing, or standing for long periods. It fastens comfortably without digging into the skin, and the buckle feels sturdy and well made.
The heel height is perfect—high enough to elongate the legs and give that confident, dressed-up vibe, but surprisingly comfortable to walk in. The insole has a nice cushion that makes them easier to wear for parties, weddings, or nights out without feeling like your feet are dying by the end of the night.
I wore these to an event and got endless compliments—everyone thought they were designer! They photograph beautifully and add a glamorous touch to any outfit, whether you're wearing a dress, jumpsuit, or even tailored pants.
The quality is excellent for the price—the materials feel durable, the craftsmanship is clean, and nothing looks cheap or flimsy. The bows hold their shape perfectly and the stones stay secure without falling off.

Beautiful and comfortable!
Size: 7.5, Color: Champagne-pu
These shoes were not only beautiful, sexy and cute but they were comfortable!! I have pretty thin feet but I cannot normally wear heels. I can only wear heels for about a half hour max.I walked in these heels almost all night!! I could not believe it. The only reason I changed was because my feet kept slipping forward (sweaty feet -full disclosure) so if I had not forgotten the slip pads, I could have wore them longer. I received so many compliments. I loved the way they sparkled too. My fave heels yet!!! You won’t regret buying them. The fit is comfortable. The front strap is a clear plastic but the bow is made out of a material that is durable and pretty (does not look cheap.) The arch support is comfy and the strap around the ankle is secure. Dream Pairs never disappoints!
