Myth Hunters by Christopner Golden is a marvelous read. The main character Oliver Bascombe is sitting quietly in his mother's parlor when a very wounded Jack Frost enters his life. And Jack is being hunted. So Oliver helps Jack escape only to find himself in The Veil. The Veil was created as a place for those of magic and mystery to go because mankind had lost its sense of wonder and belief. Man had become fixated on schedules and work. There was no place in the world for things of wonder and beauty.
But in helping Jack, Oliver becomes one of the hunted. And now they both must flee for their lives.
I can't begin to tell you how much I loved this story. The second book, Borderkind comes out at the end of the month. I can't wait.
