If you're a child of the 80s (or a newly minted hipster millennial just discovering them for the first time), you know the magic of Falkor, Fizzgig, and the Babe with the Power. We present a special collector's edition of the novelizations of the three classic movies of the 80s - Labyrinth, The Neverending Story, and The Dark Crystal.
