The Forgotten Beasts of EldWhen her father dies, 16-year-old Sybel's only companions are the magical menagerie called to Eld Mountain long ago by her reclusive grandfather, the progeny of a powerful wizard and a mortal. The animals provide Sybel's only sense of family until a man brings her the infant son of her mother's sister, forcing Sybel to return to the world of humans--a world where she learns the intricacies of guile and treachery as well as the power of human love. |
