Omschrijving

The Faces of Krampus by Joe Moore (illustrated by Mary Moore) is a darkly enchanting book blending folklore, fantasy, and redemption in a tale that explores the shadow side of holiday tradition.

Overview Set on December 5th-Krampusnacht-the story follows Santa Claus as he honors his relative, St. Nicholas, by visiting the good children of Europe with treats and cheer. But for those who've misbehaved, Santa doesn't come alone. Enter Krampus, the fearsome enforcer of St. Nicholas, known by many names: Black Peter, Pelznickel, Knecht Ruprecht, Hanstrapp, and more.

Once a humble chimney sweep bullied by society, Krampus transforms into winter's most dreaded figure. But when the devil himself begins to encroach on his territory, Krampus must shift from punisher to protector-defending the very children he once terrified. With help from celestial allies, he faces a battle that tests the limits of justice, mercy, and transformation.

Themes & Tone This tale is rich with mythological depth, exploring the duality of good and evil, the power of redemption, and the complexity of tradition. Angels, demons, elves, and flying horses populate a world where morality isn't black and white-and even the darkest figure can find light.

Audience Recommended for ages 13 and up, this book is ideal for teens, adults, and folklore enthusiasts who enjoy a more nuanced, gothic take on holiday storytelling. It's also a compelling resource for educators exploring cultural traditions and mythic archetypes.
