In Victorian London, two children with mysterious powers are hunted by a figure of darkness--a man made of smoke. Sixteen-year-old Charlie Ovid, despite a brutal childhood in Mississippi, doesn't have a scar on him. His body heals itself, whether he wants it to or not. Marlowe, a foundling from a railway freight car, shines with a strange bluish light. He can melt or mend flesh. When a jaded female detective is recruited to escort them to safety, all three begin a journey into the nature of difference, and belonging, and the shadowy edges of the monstrous. What follows is a story of wonder and betrayal, from the gaslit streets of London, and the wooden theatres of Meiji-era Tokyo, to an eerie estate outside Edinburgh where other children with gifts--the Talents--have been gathered. There, the world of the dead and the world of the living threaten to collide. And as secrets within the Institute unfurl, Marlowe, Charlie and the rest of the Talents will discover the truth about their abilities, and the nature of what is stalking them: that the worst monsters sometimes come bearing the sweetest gifts. Riveting in its scope, exquisitely written, Ordinary Monsters presents a catastrophic vision of the Victorian world-and of the gifted, broken children who must save it"-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Pearl City Public Library Adult Fiction Miro   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Science Fiction Miro   Checked out 07/16/2024 Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Miro   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Fiction Miro Fantasy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Miro   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) Adult Fiction Miro Fantasy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: Prev 1 2
