Jim Henson's the Dark Crystal: Creation Myths, Volume 3
Jim Henson's the Dark Crystal: Creation Myths, Volume 3 | Matthew Dow Smith
4 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
At the close of the Age of Harmony, began the Age of Division... Brian Froud, legendary conceptual designer of the beloved Jim Henson fantasy film The Dark Crystal, returns to the world he helped create in this stunning conclusion of the official prequel to the original movie. The world of Thra is shattered. Following the events of the Great Conjunction, the once-powerful Urskeks have been split into two separate beings: the Skeksis and the Mystics. Only Raunip and Aughra know their true origins, but they are trapped in the bowels of the world of Thra, searching for the shard of the Dark Crystal. But as the aftermath of the Great Conjunction wreaks havoc upon the Gelfling tribes, the Gelfling may have no choice but to rely upon the one race offering aid: the Skeksis. The species of Thra will have to decide who they can trust if they hope to keep their world together. Written by Matthew Dow Smith (Doctor Who, X-Files) and gorgeously illustrated by Alex Sheikman (Robotika) and Lizzy John (Fraggle Rock), this third volume is the epic conclusion to the Creation Myths saga and also features behind-the-scenes photos and concept sketches from The Jim Henson Company Archives documenting how creature and puppet designs that never made it into the film were adapted and brought to life on the page.

For some reason I decided I needed some Dark Crystal books and ordered these this weekend. I‘ve no idea how that came into my head, but I guess I‘ll have some Gelflings in my reading life soon. 🤣🤷‍♀️📚

Powered_By_Plants 🤩 loved the film as a kid ... aughra and skeksis really freaked me out but loved it . I hadn‘t realised it was a book! 3y
Soubhiville @Powered_By_Plants the movie came first, then s novelization was written. ❤️. I was just as freaked out! Also by those giant beetle creatures! 3y

I just found out there is a dark crystal game!!!! I wonder if it is a rereleaseof the old Milton Bradley game from the 80s or something all new? This is so going on this years Christmas wish list.

tournevis It is almost exactly the same game as last year's Labyrinth game, and it's not very good. The miniatures are superb, but the game is a snore fest. 6y
LibrarianRyan @tournevis really. Thanks for the heads up. I've seen the Labyrinth game but haven't played. I did buy the Storming the Castle Game from Princess Bride but didn't feel it was worth its price. 6y
LauraBrook 😍😍😍 6y
tournevis @LibrarianRyan Yeah, that was a disappointment too. 6y

The age of Harmony had ended, and the age of division had begun.
