This New York Times and USA Today bestseller arrives in a stunning special edition—complete with aqua sprayed edges that shimmer like ocean waves.
TJ Klune’s beloved contemporary fantasy wraps readers in what V.E. Schwab calls “a big gay blanket”—and she’s absolutely right. This is the kind of book that makes you believe in the transformative power of kindness, the beauty of found family, and the courage it takes to choose love over fear.
Meet Linus Baker: a forty-year-old case worker leading a careful, quiet life with his records and his devious cat. When he’s assigned to investigate a peculiar orphanage on a remote island, he expects protocol and paperwork. Instead, he discovers six extraordinary children (including a were-Pomeranian and, yes, the Antichrist) and their enigmatic caretaker, Arthur Parnassus—a man who will protect his unconventional family at any cost.
What unfolds is a story about seeing people for who they truly are, not what the world fears they might be. It’s about the homes we build when the world tells us we don’t belong. It’s funny, tender, and achingly hopeful.
Winner of the Alex Award and featured on RUSA’s Fantasy Reading List, this special edition belongs on every shelf—whether you’re discovering it for the first time or returning to the cerulean sea like an old friend. The kind of book that reminds us why we read: to feel less alone, to imagine better worlds, to believe change is possible.
Perfect for fans of cozy fantasy, LGBTQ+ romance, and stories that restore your faith in humanity.
Like being wrapped up in a big gay blanket. It's a feel-good book.
1984, but with magic and hope.
Likely to cause heart-swelling.
Quirky and kind.
So damn cute it could cause cavities.
A modern fairy tale... It's a beautiful book.
Masterly told... Readers will revel in Klune's wit and ingenuity.
