Ruth Emmie Lang’s Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance teaches us about adventure and love in a beautifully written story full of nature and wonder. But first he has to muster enough courage to knock on Mary’s front door. There is one story, however, that Weylyn wishes he could change: his own.
Stories about a boy who lives with wolves, great storms that evaporate into thin air, fireflies that make phosphorescent honey, and a house filled with spider webs and the strange man who inhabits it. Although he doesn’t stay in any of their lives for long, he leaves each of them with a story to tell. Told from the perspectives of the people who knew him, loved him, and even a few who thought he was just plain weird. As anyone who’s met Weylyn will tell you, once he wanders into your life, you’ll wish he’d never leave.
But the true magic is in the way that he transforms the lives of those around him. As he grows older, so does the legends of Weylyn Grey, his horned-pig Merlin and their magical abilities. The day that Weylyn is born is the largest snowstorm the South has ever seen. Through the story of Weylyn Grey, an orphaned boy who grew up with wolves, Lang weaves a mystical tale about life, love, and the ability each of us has to change our own story.
