The Goblin King presents
Brian Froud's Trolls
Official Launch Party
Not since Brian Froud’s conceptual design work with Jim Henson on the cult classic films The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth has he discovered an enchanted realm with such imagination, dimension, depth, and detail. Trolls features new and classic work by both Brian and his wife, Wendy, woven together along with artefacts and symbols of the natural world to create a fascinating revelation about the world of trolls. This exciting new book delves deep into the misunderstood world of trolls and troll culture, revealing their philosophies, their home life, and their world attitudes through their tales, mythology, and archaeology. As you will have learnt from the last Goblin King's Masquerade Ball, this new book affirms that trolls are real, that they have lived and are living now!
Join us for this exciting official launch event with legendary explorer, adventurer and expert of all things goblin and faery, Brian Froud
