The Wind Child

As a lover of all things mythology and folklore, Houstons duology sounded like perfection! I'm glad to say, it hits all the marks. Discusses some somewhat triggering topics such as; parent loss, grief, fear and not fitting in, in a way that feels relatable and honest. The Wind Child is a beautiful story with wonder, adventure and impressive world-building. This book is perfect for any kid especially those who enjoy works by Rick Riordan or Katya Balen. The prose is elegant and emotional, Houston has created a world of wonder, easy for any child to sink into within mere pages.
