Re- read Aug 2023, buddy read with my nephew. Got so excited when buying him the books that I had to read them all over again. I seem to have so much more understanding this time around, about the “Others”.

This story introduces Meg on the run, she ends up getting a job as a Liaison between the humans and the Others. They end up adopting her and taking steps to protect her from being taken back into captivity.
It’s precious, the bond she develops with Sam as well as the Elementals, the ponies, Tess, Grandfather and the rest.
Warmly humorous with a dash of killing prey :)

ReRead 2020- still a 5 star and I absolutely love this world. Its such a slow burn with so many layers that you just savor Meg and the fascination the Others have with her and her innocence.
Simon and Meg forever.
