Hemlock Unrooted (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994031605)

Hemlock admires the Queenspeople with their knights and houses and gardens. But the missing Nowid-tree-loving forest guardians-are even more intriguing . . . especially for a boy born from a tree! But no one knows where the Nowid went, or why, and Hemlock must sneak into the Vaults-the forbidden underground library the Nowid left behind, to find answers about how to stop Lord Knox from clear-cutting his home, the Eldarwood Forest-or worse. From their first encounter, Knox uses Mentalism to inflict crippling fear on Hemlock. Through the terror of having his mind tampered with, Hemlock learns of a deeper plot that not only threatens his Mother Tree and the Eldarwood, but the whole land of Woodmoot!
