It is an ideal pick for parents of young adults who enjoy high-fantasy adventures but are also seeking stories where LGBTQ+ relationships are central, normalized, and heroic. While the plot is filled with shapeshifters and epic battles, the core of the book explores the weight of responsibility and the courage required to stand up against long-standing prejudices.
