The peculiars are children with most unusual gifts. They live and move through various time loops and are protected and mentored by ymbryne - humans who transform into birds. They are pursued, and often killed, by hollows and wights. After their island refuge is destroyed, this particular group of peculiars escape with their ymbryne, Miss Peregrine. After the harrowing escape and pursuit, the children spend time with a most peculiar menagerie of animals and a band of gypsies. Arriving in 1940's London, they continue their quest to find the other ymbrynes, resuscitate Miss Peregrine...and save the world. Interspersed with most unusual photographs, this most peculiar story resonates with timeless themes, quirky plot, and even quirkier characters.
"The blessings of surviving precludes a great many things, exploring and falling in love not least among them."
"Prior to 1863, there weren't any underground systems in London."
