Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
Experience the first three books in Seanan McGuire's Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Wayward Children series in a single volume, Be Sure.
Book 1: Every Heart a Doorway
Book 2: Down Among the Sticks and Bones
Book 3: Beneath the Sugar Sky
Children have always disappeared under the right conditions; slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere... else.
But magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children.
When the heroes of the other lands find themselves thrust back into a world without magic, spent and directionless, and with parents who no longer understand their charges (if ever they did), the miracle children need somewhere to turn.

Meet Nancy, cast out of her world by the Lord of the Dead; Jack and Jill, each adopted by a monster of the Moors; Sumi and her impossible daughter, Rini.
