When ElfQuest: The Final Quest concluded, it ended the hero’s journey of Cutter Kinseeker, chief of the Wolfriders. But that was only the start of a new adventure for Cutter’s “brother in all but blood,” Skywise.
Now the stargazer elf, who thought he knew everything about Cutter, discovers how mistaken he was. Skywise sets his sights on the cosmic horizon for answers, sending him on his own epic quest from the elves’ ancestral Star Home through uncharted space and back to the World of Two Moons. His star-spanning quest reveals interstellar majesty and the desolation of ruined worlds, but no answers to the gaps in his memory. Meanwhile Jink, the elf-daughter he left behind, returns to the ancestral home of the Wolfriders in the hope of finding a way to heal her father’s soul.
This special hardcover edition of Stargazer’s Hunt collects the entire miniseries in one volume, including brand new behind-the-scenes sketches and commentary.
