The Edge Chronicles 4: Beyond the Deepwoods Book 1 of the Twig Saga by Paul Stewart

The first book of the Twig trilogy, part of the bestselling Edge Chronicles series.

Abandoned at birth in the perilous Deepwoods, Twig is brought up by a family of woodtrolls. One cold night, Twig does what no woodtroll has ever done before—he strays from the path.

So begins a heart-stopping adventure that will take Twig through a nightmare world of fearsome goblins, bloodthirsty beasts and flesh-eating trees. Can he discover the truth about his past?
