Impossible Creatures by Katherine Rundell

Katherine Rundell’s *Impossible Creatures* is a mesmerizing entry into the fantasy genre that showcases her exceptional storytelling and imaginative world-building. The novel introduces readers to the Archipelago, a hidden cluster of magical islands teeming with mythical creatures and ancient secrets.
