“The Tale of Owlhen the Caregiver” is a story told to Delvin by his mother about a mouse who tended to the needs of an owl, and when the mouse became ill the owl dropped everything to become the caregiver for the mouse. Petersen returns to Celanawe, now lonely and contemplative in the year 1090, in his “The Tale of Piper the Listener.” Celanawe recounts a tale that inspired him of a mouse who learned to understand what it is like to be in the shoes of others, in this case other animals, in true Aesop’s Fables style. The original seven characters in his stories were mice Kenzie, Sadie, Saxon, Conrad, Lieam, Celanawe, and the Matriarch Gwendolyn.
#The black axe mouse guard series
With some of the more recent Mouse Guard projects created by a series of contributors, this new book is a refreshing return to what made the series so popular–Petersen’s worldbuilding coupled with his classic-inspired artistic style, which is unique today. Mouse Guard: The Owlhen Caregiver & Other Tales is Petersen at his best, and the three new stories are timeless–the stuff of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tales and Aesop’s fables. Now fans of the internationally popular series can get their hands on a new book of stories in its original single issue format.
