This captivating and unsettling tale explores the lives of outsiders in a perilous world, reminiscent of the works of Lucy A. Snyder and Jeff Vandermeer. A mysterious devastation has engulfed the United States, unleashing a strange sickness that transforms the dead into blossoming flowers and yielding fruit. The allure of miracles attracts pilgrims from every corner of the globe to the Holy City of Las Vegas, where they hope to find solace and healing. Fleeing their home in the Sonora Desert, Magdala and her father set out on a perilous journey across the wasteland, driven by the desperate need to cure her disability. As they traverse through desolate cities and abandoned towns, they are compelled to join forces with a group of survivors who are also on their own pilgrimage. However, the road to Las Vegas is fraught with danger. Strange cults occupy the ruins of towns, and uncanny stuffed men lurk in the desert. As the mysterious sickness takes hold, the group of survivors dwindles, and years stretch into months. Magdala finds herself placing her trust in the most unexpected of places, and as she draws closer to her sacred destination, she feels herself drifting further away from salvation. This poignant and thought-provoking story delves into the complexities of human resilience, the power of faith, and the enduring hope for a better future, even in the face of unimaginable adversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 131 x 20 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803364995\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kay Chronister","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44553990570234,"sku":"9781803364995","price":6.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1694187995212_book.jpg?v=1694421841","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/desert-creatures-9781803364995","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
