Why read it?
1 author picked The Reindeer People as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Evocative, believable, beautifully written. Dark Fantasy at its finest; Megan’s characters will resonate with anyone who feels a bit different, like they don’t fit in with everyone else. Megan explores all this can mean in her trilogy, the good, the bad, and the downright terrifying. Her world is richly written, you can smell the tangy woodfires, and feel the biting cold.
From Chloe's list on for quality writing and believable characters.
