Mugwort's Shadow Publisher's Summary

Courage. Sacrifice. Hope.

Yarrow never expected to find himself running from wolves in the dead of night. The hedgehog minstrel dreams only of fame, hearthside songs, and perfectly baked muffins. But as he travels Blueberry Forest with his friend Mel the owl and the foxling twins, seeking the next cozy inn, fate interrupts with a captive princess and her desperate plea for help.

Mel insists they help Princess Fragaria. Yarrow protests – surely this calls for a real hero? Yet as the tyrant Mugwort's wolves close in, the reluctant hedgehog realizes his troupe is the princess’s only hope.

Will Yarrow abandon his comfortable dreams to save a kingdom, or let darkness triumph while he stands safely aside?

Perfect for fans of The Green Ember, Redwall, and Narnia.
