They came after the Diseray. Some were terrors ripped from our collective imaginations, remnants of every mythology across the world. And some were like nothing anyone had ever dreamed up, even in their worst nightmares. Monsters. Long ago, the barriers between our world and the Otherworld were ripped open, and it's taken centuries to bring back civilization in the wake of the catastrophe. Now, the luckiest Cits live in enclosed communities,behind walls that keep them safe from the hideous creatures fighting to break through. Others are not so lucky. To Joyeaux Charmand, who has been a Hunter in her tight-knit mountain community since she was a child, every Cit without magic deserves her pro...
Hunter's Purpose explores the role that animals can play in our lives. This work of fiction deals with parallel worlds, in which dogs can speak, hear, and understand humans, despite the fact that the people aren't aware of this ability. When two dogs, named Hunter and Chubby, are chained outside during a harsh winter in Pennsylvania, they must try to survive while obeying the orders of their owner, Charlie Davidson. Hunter is a devoted hunting dog whose purpose in life is to accompany Charlie. Chubby is Hunter's close friend. Both are living with the disturbing, but true, knowledge of 'the rule for their kind', which predicts when they may possibly die. In Hunter's Purpose the rule comes true for Hunter and he must save the man who caused his demise. Hunter's Purpose is a race against time and disasters that befall Charlie and the people close to him. Hunter becomes a helper, which is a different type of guardian angel. He must not only save Charlie, Debbie and Susie; but he must open up Charlie's heart and mind for the greatest hunt of his life, the hunt for the road to salvation.
The hunter arrives in an isolated community in the Tasmanian wilderness with a single purpose in mind: to find the last thylacine, the tiger of fable, fear and legend. The man is in the employ of the mysterious 'Company', but his sinister purpose is never revealed and as his relationship with a grieving mother and her two children becomes more ambiguous, the hunt becomes his own. Leigh's Tasmania is a place where the wilderness can still claim lives; where the connection between people and the land is at best uneasy and cannot be trusted. In prose of exceptional clarity and elegance, Julia Leigh creates an unforgettable picture of a man obsessed by an almost mythical animal in a damp dangerous landscape. The Hunter is the work of a compelling storyteller and a truly remarkable literary stylist.
