Now is an excellent time for new readers to discover ElfQuest, and for longtime fans to revisit a classic, as the whole series returns in these beautiful new editions. ElfQuest: The Original Quest Book 1 arrives in bookstores on March 4, 2025, and Book 2 on May 27, 2025. From creators Wendy and Richard Pini, ElfQuest: The Original Quest is being newly released in a four-volume series showcasing the entire story, now in full color for the first time at Dark Horse.
ElfQuest is a New York Times bestseller that weaves together the adventures of elfin chief Cutter and the Wolfriders—the feral, forest-dwelling elves allied with wolves, seemingly the last of their kind. Their journey to find a home in a dangerous world is a story about inclusiveness, self-discovery, finding community and overcoming the forces of bigotry and hate—all wrapped in a visually stunning high-fantasy adventure. Wendy Pini’s artwork blends eastern and western artistic conventions into a new and unique style.
“Blue Mountain, lair of the Bird Spirits.” With these words, Cutter and Skywise imagine their quest to find other elfin allies may be close to completion. The companions have no idea their hopes will be upended. Imperious Lord Voll rules Blue Mountain and the hawk-riding elves who dwell within, and he wishes no intrusion upon his Gliders’ isolated way of life. Even Voll’s presence pales before the hostility of the true power in the mountain—the treacherous, seductive Winnowill. She will stop at nothing to prevent the Wolfriders from threatening her invisible hold on the Gliders.
