Synopsis
The Wolfriders embark on a Final Quest! Generation after generation, for thousands of years, the elves of the World of Two Moons sought refuge from the savagery of their primitive planet. For a while, it seemed they had found it in the legendary Palace of the High Ones, where Chief Cutter and his tribe of Wolfriders have avoided nature’s wrath and the threat of an ever-expanding human population. Yet comfort comes at a price. The seductive magical influence of the Palace may lead to the feral elves’ undoing—and Cutter realizes he must embark upon the most important quest of all! The long-running, award-winning ElfQuest saga by celebrated creators Wendy and Richard Pini reaches an unexpected and deeply emotional story arc. Dark Horse Comics collects the entire ElfQuest: The Final Quest series for the first time into a single, stunning full-color hardcover volume, with a new introduction by Richard Pini, two new afterword pieces by Richard Pini and Wendy Pini, and a bonus section filled with amazing extras and behind-the-scenes process images that the Dark Horse ElfQuest collections are known for! Over 600 pages! Collects Elfquest: The Final Quest Volume 1–4.
