Klappentext
An ordinary man discovers a hidden world of wondrous supernatural creatures---and an unexpected home---in this enchanting contemporary fantasy debut.
Green trips on the curb, falls flat into the street, and sees the city bus speeding toward him. And then . . . blink. He's back on the curb, miraculously still alive. A five-foot-tall crow watches him from atop a nearby sign, somehow unseen by the rushing crowd of morning commuters.
Desperate for answers and beset by more visions of impossible creatures, Green finds his way to a remote campsite in the Appalachian Mountains, where he meets a centuries-old teacher and begins an apprenticeship unlike anything he could imagine.
Under his new mentor's grouchy tutelage, Green studies the time-bending rag moth, the glass fawn, and the menacing horned wolf. He begins to see past hidden nature's terrors and glimpse its beauty, all while befriending fellow misfits---and finding connection and community.
Along the way come clues about the forces that set him on this path---and, most incredibly, a sense of purpose and fulfillment like nothing he's felt before.
But Green's new happiness promises to be short-lived, because alongside these marvels lurks a deadly threat to this place he's already come to love.
Creepy, cozy, and beautiful, Strange Animals is a fantasy about home, belonging, and the fearfully wonderous nature all around us.
