*¨·٠•●♥✿LINLAN✿♥●•٠·¨* (underjadeorchid) | 390 comments The dream chooses the dreamer, not the other way around—and Lazlo Strange, war orphan and junior librarian, has always feared that his dream chose poorly. Since he was five years old he’s been obsessed with the mythic lost city of Weep, but it would take someone bolder than he to cross half the world in search of it. Then a stunning opportunity presents itself, in the person of a hero called the Godslayer and a band of legendary warriors, and he has to seize his chance or lose his dream forever.

What happened in Weep two hundred years ago to cut it off from the rest of the world? What exactly did the Godslayer slay that went by the name of god? And what is the mysterious problem he now seeks help in solving?

The answers await in Weep, but so do more mysteries—including the blue-skinned goddess who appears in Lazlo’s dreams. How did he dream her before he knew she existed? And if all the gods are dead, why does she seem so real?

Welcome to Weep.


*¨·٠•●♥✿LINLAN✿♥●•٠·¨* (underjadeorchid) | 390 comments I'll start reading it tomorrow.


Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9874 comments I'm starting today, too :) This is one of my favourite books and I'm so excited to reread it. Amazon is saying my Muse of Nightmares pre-order won't get here until the 9th, though. Sob!

I love their significance and was curious the first time I read this, as well. I have always loved moths and butterflies and this book made me love them even more.

I totally get this! I have super thick, curly hair and I was once driving late at night with the windows down and a moth somehow flew in and got tangled in my hair. Haha!
