Linus Baker leads a quiet, solitary life as a caseworker at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth. When he's sent to Marsyas Island Orphanage to evaluate the children - and their caretaker Arthur Parnassus - he's unprepared for what he finds.
The children are magical, mischievous, and utterly endearing. And Arthur is unlike anyone Linus has ever met. As Linus gets to know them, he starts to question everything he thought he knew about the world and himself.
This is the most heartwarming book we've read in years. TJ Klune has created a beautiful story about acceptance, found family, and the courage to stand up for what's right. It's cozy, magical, and will leave you with the warmest feeling. A must-read for anyone who loves feel-good fantasy.
