      Сборник "Зеленый рыцарь" удостоен награды World Fantasy Award (2003) как лучшая антология. Мы попросили авторов отправиться в Зачарованный лес и вернуться оттуда с историями об этих диких землях и существах, их населяющих. Вы встретите здесь ведьм, волков, дриад, людей-оленей, парочку фей и бесчисленное множество духов природы (включая даже дружелюбного зеленого великана). Таинственная извилистая тропинка ведет в волшебные земли через леса, пустыни, горы, города и трущобы. Над головами шепчутся кроны дубов и ясеней, а из теней наблюдают за каждым шагом зеленые существа.

Twisting together the familiar and the new, this delicious, captivating and darkly funny tale shows its creators at the peak of their talents and was the winner of the 2016 CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal.
