Into the Outlands

(3) 4-6 Quirk's Quest series. Illustrated by Deborah Lang. Dimwitted Captain Quirk and his hapless crew begin their exploration of Crutonia's uncharted territory: the Outlands. They lose their ship to giants, encounter a mysterious sorceress, and receive assistance from cuddly critters called Yoons. There is plenty to savor within the colorful comic panels; the open ending foretells more tales in this imaginative world. A handy character list helps identify the many Muppet-looking creatures.
