Subverting convention, award-winning creators M. T. Anderson and Eugene Yelchin pair up for an anarchic, outlandish, and deeply political saga of warring elf and goblin kingdoms. Uptight elfin historian Brangwain Spurge is on a mission: survive being catapulted across the mountains into goblin territory, deliver a priceless peace offering to their mysterious dark lord, and spy on the goblin kingdom -- from which no elf has returned alive in more than a hundred years. Brangwain's host, the goblin archivist Werfel, is delighted to show Brangwain around. They should be the best of friends, but a series of extraordinary double crosses, blunders, and cultural misunderstandings throws these two bumbling scholars into the middle of an international crisis that may spell death for them -- and war for their nations. Witty mixed media illustrations show Brangwain's furtive missives back to the elf kingdom, while Werfel's determinedly unbiased narrative tells an entirely different story. A hilarious and biting social commentary that could only come from the likes of National Book Award winner M. T. Anderson and Newbery Honoree Eugene Yelchin, this tale is rife with thrilling action and visual humor . . . and a comic disparity that suggests the ultimate victor in a war is perhaps not who won the battles, but who gets to write the history.Binding Type: Hardcover

Finally, a lotion that doesn't feel like a layer of grease
Size: 24 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve always hated using lotion because of that sticky, slippery feeling, but this Gold Bond Men's Essentials is different. It actually absorbs in about 15 seconds as advertised and leaves my skin feeling smooth but totally dry to the touch. The Spring Water/Sandalwood scent is clean and masculine without being overpowering or smelling like a "perfume". Perfect for daily use after a shower.
This hand cream soaked in just like the packaging says in less than 15 seconds. I could feel the difference in my cracked cuticles almost immediately. HIghly recommend.

Works great in the winter!
Size: 24 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This body lotion really saved me this winter - easy to use pump, easy to apply post-shower and absorbs well while providing a good barrier to the winter weather. This has a clean scent that subsides overtime unlike many other brands that soak you scent but not the elements.
