Reminiscent of Frankenstein and tales by the Brothers Grimm, this debut novel stands out as a compelling, original story that has the feel of a classic.

The city of Bryre suffers under the magic of an evil wizard. Because of his curse, girls sicken and disappear without a trace, and all live in fear. No one is allowed outside after dark. Night is when Kymera comes to the city, with a cloak disguising her wings, the bolts in her neck, and her spiky tail. Her mission is to rescue the girls of Bryre. Despite Kym's caution in going secretively, a boy named Ren sees and befriends her . . . but what he knows will change her world forever.

i would recomend this book to anyone that likes Fantasy and Romance. The book is about Kymera and how she is a hybrid trying to save girls from the wizard. i don't want to spoil it but a boy named Ren makes her heart fill with love because Ren and Kymera have feelings for each other. Also, theres a amazing dragon named batu. hope you enjoy this book if you read it :D .

i absolutly would recomend this to anyone that likes romance and fantasy. i loved this book i think others would too :D .

This seemed like an interesting book at the time and it was! Kymera is a in a way, a monster. She has black wings, a barbed snake tail, cat eyes, and bolts in her neck that come with her animal instincts. She doesn't act like a monster, more like her once-living mother: kind hearted and caring. When she died her fater brought here back to life and added those animal parts, to aid here in saving the girls of Bryre and defeating the wizard that killed her. How she acted just really draws me in to her story
