In the realm of Awara, where gods, monsters, and humans exist side by side, Miuko is an ordinary girl resigned to a safe, if uneventful, existence as an innkeeper's daughter. But when Miuko is cursed and begins to transform into a demon with a deadly touch, she embarks on a quest to reverse the curse and return to her normal life. Aided by a thieving magpie spirit and continuously thwarted by a demon prince, Miuko must outfox tricksters, escape demon hunters, and negotiate with feral gods if she wants to make it home again. But with her transformation comes power and freedom she never even dreamed of, and she'll have to decide if saving her soul is worth trying to cram herself back into an ordinary life that no longer fits her... and perhaps never did.

Delightful! submitted by ldibble on June 22, 2022, 1:20pm I picked up this book on a whim and am so glad that I did! The story is well crafted with enough surprise to keep you engaged and enough continuity that you do not lose connection to the characters or the overarching story line. Even after reading I am not sure what genre I would classify the tale although I know one of my next books will explore some of the magical creatures and fairy tales that (thank goodness) were briefly described in the author's copious footnotes. A wonderful story that opened a new culture to me.
