I’ve always liked the Nine-Tailed Fox Goddess. I guess my next choice would be the Gumiho. In fact, they’ve been exiled from the other five clans.
I’m big into reading and history, so the Hórangi clan is appealing, but as you’ll soon see, this clan of scholars doesn’t have the best reputation right now. I’d love to be Miru – the protectors - because their patron is the Water Dragon Goddess, but there’s no way I could be that fast and strong. Which of the six gifted witch clans would you be in? Each one is amazing, with their own patron god and special powers. I am so glad LA finally has something to brag about besides being the entrance to Hades’ Underworld. Turns out, right under our noses in Los Angeles, there is an entire society of Korean witches with deep connections to the Godrealm. Graci Kim does such an amazing job blending Korean mythology into the modern world, I am now wondering how I ever lived without knowing all this cool information. That was my first thought when reading The Last Fallen Star. Why didn’t somebody tell me about this stuff sooner? And when she uncovers secrets that challenge everything she has been taught to believe, Riley must decide what it means to be a witch, what it means to be family, and what it really means to belong. But what even is the star, and how can she find it?Īs Riley embarks on her search, she finds herself meeting fantastic creatures and collaborating with her worst enemies. When the sisters attempt to violate the laws of the Godrealm, Hattie's life ends up hanging in the balance, and to save her Riley has to fulfill an impossible task: find the last fallen star. If it works, no one will ever treat Riley as an outsider again. Then Hattie gets an idea: what if the two of them could cast a spell that would allow Riley to share Hattie's magic? Their sleuthing reveals a promising incantation in the family's old spell book, and the sisters decide to perform it at Hattie's initiation ceremony. Riley was adopted, and despite having memorized every healing spell she's ever heard, she often feels like the odd one out in her family and the gifted community. Although Riley is desperate to follow in her sister's footsteps when she herself turns thirteen, she's a saram-a person without magic. Her sister, Hattie, will earn her Gi bracelet and finally be able to cast spells without adult supervision. Riley Oh can't wait to see her sister get initiated into the Gom clan, a powerful lineage of Korean healing witches their family has belonged to for generations.
