New York Times bestselling author Kazu Kibuishi says of Lightfall: Beautifully drawn. Tim
Probert has created a world readers will want to visit. For fans of Amulet and middle grade
readers who love sweeping worlds like Star Wars the first book of the Lightfall series
introduces Bea and Cad two unlikely friends who get swept up in an epic quest to save their
world from falling into eternal darkness. Deep in the heart of the planet Irpa stands the Salty
Pig's House of Tonics & Tinctures home of the wise Pig Wizard and his adopted granddaughter
Bea. As keepers of the Endless Flame they live a quiet and peaceful life crafting medicines
and potions for the people of their once-prosperous world. All that changes one day when while
walking through the woods Bea meets Cad a member of the Galdurians an ancient race thought
to be long-extinct. Cad believes that if anyone can help him find his missing people it's the
Pig Wizard. But when the two arrive home the Pig Wizard is nowhere to be found-all that's left
is the Jar of Endless Flame and a mysterious note. Fearing for the Pig Wizard's safety Bea and
Cad set out across Irpa to find him while danger fights its way out of the shadows and into
the light. Will these two unexpected friends find the beloved Pig Wizard and prevent eternal
darkness from blanketing their world? Or has Irpa truly seen its last sunrise? Praise for
