Magic doesn’t exist in their broken city anymore, especially for girls. Indentured to the notorious Night Zoo, one of our main characters cares for its fearsome and magical creatures to pay off her family’s debts and secure their eventual freedom. But the night her loved ones’ own safety is threatened by the Zoo’s cruel master, she unleashes a power she doesn’t fully understand–and the consequences are dire.
As the second son of a decorated hero, our second main character is all but destined to become a Son of the Six–an elite warrior–and uphold a family legacy. But on the night of his final rite of passage, a fire upends his plans. In its midst, he not only encounters a vicious monster that has plagued the city and his nightmares for nearly a century–but a curious girl who seems to have the power to ward off the beast. Her power ultimately saves his life, but his choice to let her flee dooms his hopes of becoming a warrior.
Desperate to redeem himself, he vows to hunt the monster down and end its reign of terror, but he can’t do it alone. Meanwhile, she believes finding the monster and selling it for a profit could be the key to solving her own problems. Keeping their true motives secret from the other, they form a tentative alliance and enter into the unknowns of the Greater Jungle, a world steeped in wild magic and untold dangers. The hunt begins. But it quickly becomes unclear whether they are the hunters or the hunted.
Steeped in Pan-African influence, this gorgeous debut novel provides hints of magic throughout each and every page. Even more, this box will include some of our most detailed gifts that will bring this adventure to life in a whole new way!
