Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Laura Carlin (illustratore). Reprint. Epic fantasy for young adults, of the battle between Good & Evil in England, Cornwall & Wales, based partly on ancient Anglo-Saxon lore; winner of a Newbery Medal and two Tir na n'Og awards. Includes new prefaces by the author for each book: in one, she credits her Oxford professors C. S. Lewis & J. R. R. Tolkien for halting their English Literature syllabus at 1832, steeping their students in the old literature of the Islands, and her experiences as a child during the Blitz for the Good versus Evil theme. Attractively bound, the first Folio printings, as pictured: Over Sea was published in 2011, the others in 2012. Regrettably, several corners are badly bumped - only Dark is Rising is unaffected, though the bump to Silver on the Tree is minor. Light wear to books otherwise, clean & unmarked; slipcases likewise bumped, with minor scuffs. Scarce as a set. A surcharge for expedited or international shipping of this set of books will be required; please inquire for an accurate quote. Size: Octavo. Set.
