Tolkien, Hopkins, Peterson

Last week on a mission for our producer, Chris, I discovered a whole spate of Wingfeather reviews we haven’t posted (or in most cases even seen) yet—some hearkening back to the Warden and the Wolf King Kickstarter or earlier. It’s always a thrill to read heartfelt words about these books we all love. Here’s one […]

Heidi’s honeymuffins

New fan art! One of my favorite things! This is from Heidi, age 8. She is her family’s Song and Dance Maiden, and has been learning some art also (THAGS!). If you’ve read through the first few chapters of The Warden and the Wolf King, you may recognize this scene.
