1. Edmund Spenser’s The Faerie Queene

Oasis Family Media owns Enclave Publishing and Oasis Audio as well as the upcoming imprint Sky Turtle.

Journey back to a forgotten world that inspired generations of fantasy writers.

Welcome to Spenser’s grand adventure, a tale that inspired generations of fantasy writers, now accessible to all.

Many have attempted to read Edmund Spenser’s 1590s epic The Faerie Queene, only to be discouraged by language even more difficult than Shakespeare’s. Now, educator Rebecca K. Reynolds presents a text-faithful prose rendering that gradually introduces Spenser’s distinctive vocabulary, preparing readers to engage confidently with the original text.

Richly illustrated by fantasy artist Justin Gerard, this three-volume set shares the adventures of knights who confront monsters, wizards, enchantresses, and their own weaknesses. Prince Arthur also seeks his love, Gloriana, the elusive Faerie Queene.

Sky Turtle Press presents Edmund Spenser’s The Faerie Queene, a Prose Rendering: A Text-Faithful Translation of the 1590s Epic Poem, by Rebecca K. Reynolds, available December 16 wherever fantastic books are sold. Ask for it at your favorite bookseller or your local library, or order it online from amazon.com.

Also available as an audiobook, masterfully narrated by Simon Vance, from Oasis Audio.
