The Lesson

Don't you just hate it when myths are real?

They're supposed to be faster, stronger, better than any other being; they're supposed to be the ultimate beings. They are the last myth left. And they just walked through the door.

In a world where all mythical beings are not only a reality but live in harmony with humans, there are almost no myths left. Pulchras were supposed to be a myth. The last myth, in fact. So imagine the surprise of Foghlama's University students when not one, but two Pulchras join their ranks.

Jarlath and his twin sister, Thyme, are Pulchras whose parents were murdered when they were twelve and ten years old. This, the first book in the Pulchra Trilogy, is the story of how they grow up to realize their parents' murderers will stop at nothing until they are dead as well and that unless they change their ways, they'll be running forever.
