The other is an all-new, all-terrifying dragon species--the web-spitting Silkspanners!

All-new comic strip adventures starring Hiccup, Toothless and Friends (and Enemies)! A Witch named Skuld the Sorceress threatens Berk with destruction, having already destroyed several other villages. She starts displaying her powers by making the skies turn black... But is all as it seems...?

Hiccup is a teenage Viking from the Isle of Berk, where fighting dragons is a way of life. His progressive views and dry sense of humor make him a misfit, despite the fact that his father is chief of the tribe. Tossed into dragon-fighting school, he endeavors to prove himself a true Viking, but when he befriends an injured dragon he names Toothless, he has the chance to plot a new course for his people—and dragonkind. Fans will love the graphic novel style retelling of this epic adventure from the hit DreamWorks Animation movie, How to Train Your Dragon.

The first book in a seafaring fantasy trilogy that George R. R. Martin has described as “even better than the Farseer Trilogy—I didn’t think that was possible.” Bingtown is a hub of exotic trade and home to a merchant nobility famed for its liveships—rare vessels carved from wizardwood, which ripens magically into sentient awareness. Now the fortunes of one of Bingtown’s oldest families rest on the newly awakened liveship Vivacia. For Althea Vestrit, the ship is her rightful legacy. For Althea’s young nephew, wrenched from his religious studies and forced to serve aboard the Vivacia, the ship is a life sentence. But the fate of the ship—and the Vestrits—may ultimately lie in the hands of an outsider: the ruthless buccaneer captain Kennit, who plans to seize power over the Pirate Isles by capturing a liveship and bending it to his will. Don’t miss the magic of the Liveship Traders Trilogy: SHIP OF MAGIC • MAD SHIP • SHIP OF DESTINY
