Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“Intricately plotted and wonderfully realized…There is evil, betrayal, cruelty, loss, compassion, kindness, a touch of humor, and heart-stopping adventure…The carefully constructed fantasy world holds perfectly true.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “It’s a marvelous adventure, and Lasky's gorgeous text has a proper, old-fashioned tone that lends gravity to the fantastical plot. There is an astonishingly detailed mythology, language, and history to the beaver world, and larger, relevant themes of immigration and racism are organically worked in… an enchanting introduction to a wonderful, new natural world.” — Booklist (starred review) “Themes of belonging and friendship are well conveyed… as are the complexities of this industrious world of creatures.” — Publishers Weekly
