He expected nothing. But they gave him everything . . .
Linus Baker leads a quiet life. At forty, he has a tiny house with a devious cat and his beloved records for company. And at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, he’s spent many dull years monitoring their orphanages.
Then one day, Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. He must travel to an orphanage where six dangerous children reside – including the Antichrist.
At the orphanage, Linus must somehow determine if they could bring about the end of days. But their guardian, the charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, will do anything to protect his wards. And, as Arthur and Linus grow ever closer, Linus must choose: his duty, or his dreams . . .
The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is an uplifting, heart-warming fantasy tale that’s become a New York Times, USA Today and Washington Post bestseller.

En af den slags bøger, hvor man ler højt og måske ind imellem fælder en lille glædeståre

Fantastisk dejlig bog. Dejligt skrevet og oplæst. LGBTQIA+ repræsentation, en hovedrolle man kan relatere til og en fantasi verden man nemt kan leve sig ind i. Læs/Hør den!

Delightfully charming and funny. The mix of genres (young adult fantasy and MM romance) is odd, but certainly entertaining.

Virkelig velkomponeret historie, super underholdende og genial oplæser. En bog der handler om meget end hvad der er på overfladen, og som stiller nogle vigtige spørgsmål. Men mest af alt er jeg bare glad for at have hørt den, den var lige den bog jeg ikke vidste jeg trængte til at læse :-)

Som et blødt tæppe og en kop varm kakao. Gennemført feelgood, men med et vigtigt budskab.
