Description
Since 1996, Finder has set the bar for science-fiction storytelling, with a lush, intricate world and compelling characters. Finder: Talisman is the story of a book - the book beloved by misfits and castaways, once glimpsed and forever longed for - and of Marcie, the kid who never gives up her search for magic and meaning. Now, the fan-favorite story is collected in a new, oversized hardcover edition and a limited-edition hardcover signed by creator Carla Speed McNeil!
"It's about that book that's never there when you wake up, no matter how hard you try to take it with you; the book you steal when you're too young to realize it's not the only copy in the world. TALISMAN is about hunger and magic, and the power of stories made solid."
TALISMAN is about falling in love with books, needing and wanting them, and what we do when we can't have more of the thing we love. This edition's cover recreates the cover of main character Marcie's treasure-book, lost and found and lost again.
