📘The Gist 📘: Several young men and a young woman from a rural town follow the advice of a woman they're all inexplicably afraid of to leave their village after it is attacked by creatures of legend. They then travel for a long time trying to avoid notice.
📒Representation📒: three female main characters (but they're all pretty flat)
💕 For readers looking for 💕: A hero's journey fantasy, an 800+ page book, books like Lord of the Rings and Sword of Shannara
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Body horror, Death, Mental illness, Violence, Blood, Fire/Fire injury, Sexual harassment, and War
Moderate: Confinement, Physical abuse, and Xenophobia
