The Turning


















Aran belongs with the Selkies and someday he will turn.  It just hasn't happened yet...  But any day now the Moon will call to him, his fingers will start to web, and he will finally have his pelt.  He will finally be able to swim and keep up with the rest of his clan when they are in seal form.  He won't hold them back, he won't hold his mom back.

But then he finds out that he isn't a full Selkie.  His dad was human.  Which means... he may never change.  Eventually his mother and the rest of the clan decide to go far north to some ancient Selkies to see if they can find a way for him to turn.  But to do that his mom decides to leave him with a human woman.  How can he survive in that strange environment?  Will he ever get his pelt and be who he lngs to be?

This one was surprisingly good.  Aran really struggled with his identity.  There was good action and good relationships.  An interesting read.
