The night is November 5th, 1885. The sky is exploding with fireworks and blazing bonfires as half of Britain celebrates Gunpowder Treason Day.
Under the cover of the smoke, a secret race of animals called the Purelings made their desperate move. They had no choice. They have to run, or “go worldly-wise”—a curse that would strip away their purity and destroy their souls forever.
We are talking about griffins, drakes, unicorns, and others fleeing in plain sight.
The human world completely missed their desperate escape. But eight children will be the key to their survival.
