Magic Isn't Safe

On a land that floats on the back of a turtle, two lesbian lovers are introduced and aided by the mysterious, flaming haired, motorcycle-riding Mother Night— whose appearances are marked by death. But a bargain with a goddess... will never be without a price.

The world of Godmother Night resembles our own, but in their world, magic is real and present, and not always safe. I hear notes of Greek mythology, Native American folk tales, and Wicca in Pollack’s fairy tale. At the heart of this book is a love story and an allegory about recognizing one’s true self.

I got carried away with her two lovers as they found each other, and gasped as the story turned its surreal corners. Yes, it's that good.

Dark

This was well done but the end was so sad and a little confusing. Very deep story.
