The House by the Cerulean Sea
Linus Baker leads a quiet, solitary life. At forty, he lives in the city, where it only rains and the days are grey, in an old house with a grumpy cat and his vinyl records for company.
As an employee of a department that cares for and protects children with magical powers, Linus receives a top-secret assignment: to travel to the Marsyas Island orphanage, run by the charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus. Six children with potentially dangerous abilities live there: a 200-year-old gnome, a forest fairy, a serpent, a boy who transforms into a Pomeranian, an amorphous green blob, and the Antichrist. Linus must set aside his fears and find out whether or not they can bring about the end of days.
The children are not, however, the island's only secret. In the end, Linus Baker will have to make a choice: destroy a place and a family to which he has unexpectedly grown attached, or watch the world burn.
A novel that will leave your soul in good hands and your heart in the right place.
