The Monster in the Hollows

The Wingfeather Saga, Book 3

By: Andrew Peterson

Narrated by: Andrew Peterson

Things are about to go from bad to wolf in the howlingly entertaining third book of the Wingfeather Saga.

Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby, the Lost Jewels of Anniera, are hiding from Gnag the Nameless in the Green Hollows, one of the few places in the land of Aerwiar not overrun by the Fangs of Dang. But there's a big problem. Janner's little brother--heir to the throne of Anniera--has grown a tail. And gray fur. Not to mention two pointed ears and long, dangerous fangs. To the suspicious folk of the Green Hollows, he looks like a monster.

But Janner knows better. His brother isn't as scary as he looks. He's perfectly harmless. Isn't he?

Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, The Monster in the Hollows is a tale children of all ages will cherish, families can listen to together, and book clubs are sure to enjoy discussing for its many layers of meaning.

Critic reviews

Praise for the Wingfeather Saga

“I love all the adventure and the wild inventiveness and, most of all, the heart in Andrew’s books. He is a poet and a master storyteller. I want to read anything he writes.”—Sally Lloyd-Jones, New York Times best-selling author of children’s books

“An experience your family will never forget. I can’t recommend these books highly enough!”—Sarah Mackenzie, author of The Read-Aloud Family and founder and host of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast

“The Wingfeather Saga is witty, imaginative, and full of heart. Highly recommended for middle-grade readers who’ve run out of Narnia novels and are searching for their next great series.”—Anne Bogel, creator of the Modern Mrs. Darcy blog and host of the What Should I Read Next? podcast

“A wildly imaginative, wonderfully irreverent epic that shines with wit and wisdom—and features excellent instructions on how to cope with thwaps, Fangs, and the occasional toothy cow.”—Allan Heinberg, writer and coexecutive producer of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy and cocreator of Marvel Comics’ Young Avengers

“Immensely clever!”—Phil Vischer, creator of VeggieTales

Best book in Aerwiar

I love every passage, note, comment, sentence, song, poem, line, character, and place in this book. I have read and listened to it SO many times, and I have recommended it to SO many people! Andrew Peterson is my favorite author, and one of my favorite musicians! I’ve read or started and am working on, all of his books! He is such a wise man, and Christian

A must listen/read!!

This series just keeps getting better and better! My children and I could not stop. Well done, Andrew Peterson, in making your readers feel everything the characters felt. Looking forward to the 4th book.

pulls you in!

so far I have enjoyed book 3 of the saga the most. unexpected twists and turns keep you wanting more.

Bought the series for three friends immediately upon finishing it

I read the series and immediately reread it.
Also bought it for friends who need to hear this story.
Absolutely phenomenal.

My new favorite series

it's been a while since I've read a whole series of fantasy books, though I've read many in the past. This one is excellent, and there is a level of depth of realness, of real feelings, real struggles, and real personal dynamics that I've seldom, if ever, seen in other books. I would recommend it for all ages, but if younger ones are going to read them, better the parents do first. There are some parts that are pretty dark, but in a good way. It's hard to explain. I guess you just have to read them!
