Angelwood. Kings & Queens

Do you really believe that miracles no longer exist? That all hope is lost just because the world is becoming more desolate, meaner, and more selfish? Do you think all the joyful laughter has ceased because our secret wishes have been buried by grumpy villains in the graveyard of dreams?

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and firmly believe, then you'll see for yourself how majestic dragons with fiery breath and mighty wings soar powerfully over your heads, longing to give your dreams royal wings.

Daring heroes, whose brave hearts beat in the right place, whose glorious swords win upright battles for one - or sometimes another - blessed cause.

Charming princesses, full of longing and immortal love, waiting for that one hero and warrior to free them from the clutches of treacherous rascals.

Loyal companions, who fearlessly unite to the ends of the earth, whose friendship can be counted on in every battle, in every seemingly lost skirmish.

The love of a queen, the pride of a king, united to guard the welfare of humans and their children, brighter, more radiant, more brilliant than you ever imagined in your wildest fantasies.

Embark on a dangerous adventure and boldly follow the beautiful Serenity, Princess of ANGELWOOD, who, along with her friends, embarks on a risky journey where virtuous values like love, faith, strength, respect, courage, pride, honor, loyalty, and deep friendship are needed more than ever in the fight against evil.

Save, together with the daring companions, the divine compass from the downfall of humanity.

ANGELWOOD tells of happiness, but also of pain. ANGELWOOD forges new alliances between good and evil, achieves victories, and experiences defeats. ANGELWOOD overcomes the deep gulf of hostile souls and allies former rivals into loyal, upright friends who experience exciting adventures together.

ANGELWOOD pushes human prejudices behind its barriers and stands for the blazing fire of equality and integrity.

ANGELWOOD is that one moment, that magical moment, that means everything to each of us. For one, it's great love or the dream of eternal life, for another, the shine of a raised treasure or the deep trust of an intimate friendship.

In times when humans and our society see true values and the prospect of happiness, faith, and hope lost, Hendrik Birke, together with his best friend, the multiple award-winning Chinese illustrator Su Haitao, created a cheerful-melancholic story full of courage, hope, friendship, confidence, and love. Breathtaking magic, dark magic, and the constant battle between good and evil – all that is ANGELWOOD.

The translations are by Harriet de Onis, Anthony Kerrigan, and others, including the editors, who have provided a biographical and critical introduction, as well as an extensive bibliography.

In the end, Fin finds himself standing between Madros and Eamìn, two people he’s sworn to love and protect, and deciding which to serve.

To Enter The Path

A Vendrix is born. These are mortals that know all spells and enchantments, without having picked up a spell book all their lives. Normally, such power would be drool-worthy, but in this case, it means to be possessed by a demon that’s just using a body as a conduit.

For the townspeople, a beloved family member will now crave carnage and kill siblings and strangers alike. For the person possessed, they barely last a day before sharpened pitchforks are used against them. But a drunken minstrel’s foreseen a Vendrix that can actually control the demon. Such a weapon seems to be the only thing that can annihilate the sorcerer that’s been wreaking havoc everywhere.

Zendra’s denying that she’s the Vendrix, despite the fact that she just massacred a horde of wizards with no more exertion of energy than a yawn. Regardless, she’s enlisted by three men wanting to attempt the deadly path to the sorcerer, for fame, adventure, or vengeance.

Now, Valen, an arrogant yet charming wizard prodigy, Brevle, a wise-cracking warrior, Wulard, who owns a map (sorry, that’s all he contributes), and Zendra, still unsure if she’s more of a threat to them than the obstacles, must band together, quiet their pessimism, and will their legs to forge through the Path of Fatality.
