YAMonster Blood Tattoo series.
Learning he is a monster in the shape of a boy, Rossamünd is torn between loyalty to his brave monster-fighting mistress and the world of monsters where he belongs. This dense, engrossing book requires immersion in Cornish's invented world and language. The plot build-up is leisurely, but the exciting final sequence and emotional conclusion are rich rewards. Glos.
