The Feather Giant

By Raven Walker

The Feather Giant is a race of stories lived in a dreamland a little boy might dream and wander in search of action and adventure.

The feather giant, Trebor, is a seven-foot tall, manlike creature, covered in shaggy feathers instead of fur, light as a feather, quick as a cat, and able to climb like a spider. He wakes up in a forest in a pile of leaves, near tabula rasa. But life does not just happen, it moves. Befriended by a brightly colored toucan, Trebor encounters a dragon and a dragon keeper, a sage in a magical garden, a strange bearman, an alien named Zixix with a spaceship, a troll and a dwarf captain, and pirates, ship, crew, and plank, just as one might expect from a little boy dreaming.

Trebor learns he must head north, always north, if he is to catch up with the other 776 feather giants apparently ahead of him. The action moves through the child's natural development, from naive, simple settings, to the more complex arrangements of a city with mixed up animal citizens, including the most complex arrangement of all, a little girl.

In the surprise ending, Trebor...but that would be telling how dreams end, and nobody knows that, not even old feather giants.
