I must I received an arc copy for review. I must say I think this some marvelous writing. This is not just a lovely novel, its a whole universe and mythos brought to life. Take a dash of Toni Morrison, a healthy dose of Neil Gaiman, and take a trip down Clive Barker street and you get a taste for what this experience is about, but Sumiko Saulson brings it to life with her own unique voice. Don't miss this!
