- This book is full of messy characters (some of whom I thought could have stood to have a little more page time) and you're rooting for Joan the whole way. I was turning pages as fast as I could, and the final showdown had me gripped.
- The ending seems to have people split, and I can see why - if you read this book, come talk to me about what you think happens!

A dark fairytale of love at first sight and loss at first betrayal, set in the Métis communities of Canada where the rogarou haunts the night. This lyrical tale of love and loss and connection may have passed fantasy readers by (especially outside its native Canada), but it’s worth seeking out for those who enjoy character-driven, mythological drama.
