Never Dream of the Wild Hunt!

The adventures of Jannis, Motte and Wendel, the Forest Demon

The adventures in the Elves' Forest continue! Jannis, Motte and Wendel, the forest demon, are back. Although it is actually time for hibernating, things are just about to start!

“Pest, pox and tick infestation!” Jannis mumbles, as he wakes up cold and hungry. He is forced to get up, as he hadn't put up any supplies for the winter last summer. He goes off to search for his friend, Motte, together with Wendel, the forest demon. She is out with blackbird Salamander, who finally wants to write his “book about everything”. Yet it is the time of harsh nights, the nights of wild hunts when the queen of the sky and her subjects fly out into the night to spread fear and terror...


“The wild hunt, Motte,“ said Wendel. “The harsh nights belong to her. It is when the queen of the sky flies over the forest. And she is a very powerful queen, oh yes! And her servants follow her like a tail. Like the tail of a comet. Oh yes! Witches, Motte! Wizards! I saw it. Oh yes!”
