Myth Maker is the third book of the Mythical Menagerie series by Suneé le Roux, a fast-paced contemporary urban fantasy series featuring a reluctant everyman hero in search of mythical creatures on behalf of a mysterious council. Based in London, the male protagonist travels all across Europe where he encounters shadowy factions and hidden sanctuaries, all while battling increasing personal and world-saving stakes.
Ever since the last werewolf died, the world has started giving up. Apparently, that’s my problem now.
When Amari killed the last werewolf, she broke something fundamental. Soldiers are quitting. Doctors don’t care anymore. Even my sister dropped out of university.
But Cassie says she’s just as qualified to hunt the mythical as I am. She’s wrong. Her best friend’s in hospital after saving her from a lamia attack, slowly losing her sanity to its venom. And Cassie’s going after a cure – with or without me.
To keep Cassie safe, I need to find the lamia first. But the deeper I dig, the more I realise: tracking down one creature won’t fix this. The only way to stop the world from giving up is to restore what Amari destroyed.
I need to bring back the werewolf.
But how do you create a new werewolf when there’s none left to sire one?
Hunting for answers leads me to an illegal market where mythical creatures are sold like used clothes at a bazaar.
I thought we’d put a stop to the poaching in Rome. Turns out, there’s a syndicate behind it all.
And the more I look, the more I have to ask: is the Elder Council – and my father – part of it?
