This is my third McGuire book, after Into the Drowning Deep (Mira Grant) and Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day. Once again, Seanan McGuire excels at condensing an incredible concept into a short, strange, sweet story. There’s a darkness just around each corner, and when tragedy strikes, it’s up to Nancy and her new-found schoolmates to get to the heart of the matter. And each of them is seeking a way back to their own fantasy world.īut Nancy’s arrival marks a change at the Home. The children under Miss West’s care understand all too well. The things she’s experienced… they change a person. Children have always disappeared under the right conditions slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere… else.īut magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children.
