Wilderoot (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781955060479)

"Paz, m'ija," Abuelita says. Peace, my child.

Forbidden to live openly as what she is, Valora has been running from a normal life, from the trappers who would steal her magic, and from the anger growing inside her.

When her family of shapeshifters is taken, she follows their captors south into trapper country where mysterious machines roam and trappers hunt magic with advanced technologies. Deep inside California's yellow hills, she opens old family wounds and an ancient choice resurfaces.

Guided by her stag magic, her family's buried past, and her abuelita's final plea for peace, Valora begins to understand the true nature of her journey-not just to rescue her family, but to tame the darkness taking root in her soul. Peace feels out of reach, but it could be the unlikely power that stitches her family back together.

A lyrical, fast-paced historical fantasy, Wilderoot explores the cost of anger and the strength of peace, perfect for fans of Kiran Milwood Hargrave, Katherine Rundell, and Aisling Fowler.
