London, 1882. Two kids with unexplained abilities are being pursued in Victorian London by a guy composed of smoke, a figure of darkness.
Charlie Ovid, 16, is unmarred despite having experienced cruelty all of his life. Not that he wants it to, but his body repairs itself. Marlowe is a foundling from a freight train that has an odd blue glow about it. He is able to repair or melt flesh. They are forced to face the nature of diversity, belonging, and the dark edges of the monstrous when two seasoned detectives are hired to lead them north to safety.
From the gaslit streets of London to a creepy estate outside of Edinburgh, where other gifted children—the Talents—have been assembled, is what happens next. The worlds of the living and the dead are in danger of colliding here. Marlowe, Charlie, and the other Talents will also learn the truth about their powers and the nature of the entity pursuing them as mysteries inside the Institute come to light: sometimes the greatest monsters bring the most beautiful gifts.
Ordinary Monsters is a picture of the Victorian era that is catastophic, with rich writing, captivating world-building, and an engrossing storyline. It also tells the story of the shattered, bright children who must rescue the world.
