ONE DARK WINDOW x THE LAST UNICORN 🌿witch clans, dead cave women, & angry spirits 🌝three magic users go on a quest to find a rumored cure to the personification of death 🍁a girl with bone magic, & a dead mom 🌝dark, consequential magic 🌿inspired by ukrainian folklore #Bluepit #YA #Q 📖

A teal green organic shape used as a background to “An agents guide to (in one font) THE BONE COLLECTOR (shaded in another font)” there’s a woodland picture in the backgroundPitch & Vibes in black lettering
below the title is a series of inserts with three book covers: “I’m Afraid You’ve Got Dragons,” “Daughter of the Bone Forest,” and “The Last Unicorn.” the pictures in between are of a girl looking off to the side, a girl with a deer skull looking at the camera, a girl drinking wine looking at the viewer, and a stain glass window depicting a knight fighting a dragon. 
below that is an organic brown/gray bubble with text that reads “After a deadly sickness known as Chuma begins to infect her siblings, Olena Thunderchild—secret bone magic user who can make deals with the dead—plunges into the mythical forest to find the cure.”A Simple Snippet
“‘They haunt you. You let them haunt your dreams,’ Olena states the obvious. She’s the one who should be haunted in dreams and life. She is the one that speaks to spirits and has one stored in her pocket at this very moment, yet she never sees them in her dreams. When she’s done with a spirit, they simply fade from all existence.
‘They’re a piece of me now. I can’t erase how I used them.’”
there is character art on the bottom and a background of dragons flying.Reader Reviews:
