The Nameless One is a children's fantasy novel by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell, first published in 2014. It is the eleventh volume of The Edge Chronicles and the first of the Cade Saga trilogy; it is the first main series book since The Immortals.
Plot
Cade Quarter is on the run - wanted for the crimes of an uncle he never even met. With no money and nowhere to go, he sneaks on board the Xanth Filatine; a mighty skyship bound for the city of Hive. But getting on board is the least of his troubles, and he is soon forced to abandon ship for the harsh lands of the mighty Deepwoods.
Finding himself in a remote backwater known as the Farrow Ridges, Cade must struggle to build a life amongst flesh-eating bloodoak trees, fearsome goblin tribes and monstrous lake creatures. And, perhaps most mysterious of all, a half-formed giant known only as the nameless one.
