Linus Baker is a by-the-book case worker in the Department in Charge of Magical Youth. He's tasked with determining whether six dangerous magical children are likely to bring about the end of the world.

Arthur Parnassus is the master of the orphanage. He would do anything to keep the children safe, even if it means the world will burn. And his secrets will come to light.

Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“Warm, beautiful, cozy, and rich. I say it's 'What if Ted Lasso ran an X-Men school for younger kids. The love story at the heart of it is adorable too. Wonderful characters that you'll instantly love. Can't recommend more.”

Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“This book. This damn book. Infinity stars! I have never read a book before that I felt at each and every nerve ending in my body. No book has ever made me feel butterflies like The House in the Cerulean Sea. It made me giddy! This book spoke to my core and has changed me as a person. The life lessons I learned from reading this story? Wow. I fell, and hard, for Linus, Arthur, Zoe, Lucy, Phee, Talia, Sal, Chauncey, Theodore, Calliope, Helen.. and even Merle! I will forever hold them in my heart. It honestly took me a bit to get into the story but once I did, there was no going back! HIGHLY recommend this book. TJ Klune wrote a masterpiece and the artwork on the cover by Peter Lutjen is breathtakingly beautiful!”
