About the Book
Danny North knew from early childhood that
his family was different, and that he was different from them. While
his cousins were learning how to create the things that commoners called fairies, ghosts, golems, trolls, werewolves, and other such miracles
that were the heritage of the North family, Danny worried that he would
never show a talent, never form an outself.
He grew up in the
rambling old house, filled with dozens of cousins, and aunts and uncles, all ruled by his father. Their home was isolated in the mountains of
western Virginia, far from town, far from schools, far from other
people.
There are many secrets in the House, and many rules that
Danny must follow. There is a secret library with only a few dozen
books, and none of them in English — but Danny and his cousins are
expected to become fluent in the language of the books. While Danny’s
cousins are free to create magic whenever they like, they must never do
it where outsiders might see.
Unfortunately, there are some secrets kept from Danny as well. And that will lead to disaster for the North family.
