Descrizione
On the eve of Hogswatch, the excitement usually filling the air is eerily absent. The expected joviality and the figure of the beloved Hogfather seem to have vanished, leaving a chilling silence in their wake. This peculiar turn of events spurs the ever-diligent Death into action, as he takes an unusual step by donning a red suit and attempting to fill the role of the jolly gift-giver. However, the task proves to be far more challenging than he could have imagined.
Meanwhile, a young girl named Susan is unwittingly drawn into this fantastical dilemma. As the granddaughter of Death, she finds herself navigating a world where the boundaries between fantasy and reality blur, while also managing the chaos that unfolds in the absence of Hogfather. Susan's strong will and determination drive her to understand the importance of belief and tradition in this magical realm.
The story unfolds as the characters grapple with underlying themes of faith, the spirit of giving, and the peculiarities of how society creates its own myths. With humor and wit, the narrative explores what makes the festive season magical while highlighting the essential role of imagination and joy in the face of the unexplainable.
