Description
The second collection in Seanan McGuire's multi-Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Wayward Children series.
Join the students of Eleanor West, and jump through doors into worlds both dangerous and extraordinary. Book 4: In an Absent DreamBook 5: Come Tumbling Down
Book 6: Across the Green Grass Fields Children have always disappeared under the right conditions; slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere... else. But magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children. Meet Lundy, who makes an ill-fated bargain in a goblin market; reunite with Jack as she realizes a scientist has done something truly mad to her; and meet Regan who discovers a world of centaurs, kelpies, and other magical equines. Three worlds, three adventures, three sets of lives destined to intersect. Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children
No Solicitations / No Visitors / No Quests But quests are what these children do best...

She also writes darker fiction as Mira Grant. Seanan lives in Seattle with her cats, a vast collection of creepy dolls, horror movies, and sufficient books to qualify her as a fire hazard. She won the 2010 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, and in 2013 became the first person to appear five times on the same Hugo ballot. In 2022 she managed the same feat, again!
