This story is unlike any other you'll ever read. It's mythical and fantastical while being firmly planted in our reality. It's about magical creatures and it's about every day people. Those that are different and outcasts. Ones who don't belong and ones who find their family along the way.

It's a tale about love and acceptance but also hatred and prejudice. The metaphors are abundant but every single one hits perfectly.

I cannot wait to pick up the next book in this series and dive back into this incredibly rich and beautifully bright world and the characters that inhabit it.
