The Book Eaters - EN - Sunyi Dean - Hardcover

Hidden across England and Scotland live six old Book Eater families.

The last of their lines, they exist on the fringes of society and subsists on a diet of stories and legends. 

Children are rare and their numbers have dwindled, so when Devon Fairweather's second child is born a dreaded Mind Eater, a perversion of her own kind, who consumes not stories but the minds and souls of humans, she flees before he can be turned into a weapon for the family, or worse.

Living among humans and finding prey for her son, Devon seeks a cure for his hunger. But time is running out, for her family wants her back, and with every soul her son consumes he loses a little more of himself.
