review 1: When Melody’s mother dies, she is alone in the world – more so than others because she is also deaf. While driving home in a blinding snowstorm, she encounters a Sasquatch, and wrecks her car trying to avoid hitting him. He rescues her and shelters her among his people.Basically a love story, I was fascinated with the culture created by Ms. Jeppsen for the mythological creatures. Her world-building skills are amazing and characters are well-defined and believable. You come to love these gentle giants and fear for their continued existence as the outside world tries to exterminate them.Beautiful prose along with a fast-paced story make it one of my favorites of the year. I highly recommend this book to fantasy/sci-fi lovers. Well done, Ms. Jep... morepsen!
review 2: This is a wonderful love story about two young people from very different backgrounds mixed with intrigue and secret government agencies. While reading this story I found myself so immersed in it I was there experiencing everything Melody did. I did not want to put it down.The way the author has portrayed the story is a beautiful insight into what could possibly be true.I highly recommend this book. It has love, war and winning over adversity. The story keeps you fascinated until the very last page which I finished with a big smile. less
