Under a Carnivore Sky

Bol

In this novel in verse, a girl hunts a monster through a carnivorous swamp to save her father and fellow townsfolk from its curse. Sixteen-year-old Lili is a hunter, which means she has one goal: Find the monster lurking in the carnivorous, labyrinthian swamp that borders their hometown - and slay it. Her father failed to kill the beast, and like all townsfolk over eighteen, bits of his flesh and bone are being stolen away by its curse. With all roads out of town leading back in, they’re trapped with the curse unless Lili stops it; yet the ease with which she wanders the swamp leaves her more feared than favoured. When a boy, Caleb, offers to map the swamp in exchange for her help in finding a way through it, Lili agrees, hoping to track down the monster. But the more they explore, the more she resents the town and questions the curse itself. Confronted with the truth, Lili must decide if duty or her own freedom is a worthier pursuit.
