A Grey is a being that embodies the worst fears of all living creatures. They are massive, muscular and hairless, with black eyes that shimmer like pools of oil. Predators flee in terror at the site of them; prey cowers in hopes they will be ignored. For eons they have lived only to cause death and destruction but when one falls captive to human emotions, everything changes… Grey is an epic saga set in a world where fear dominates everyone’s lives. It tells the story of one such creature who unexpectedly becomes ensnared by love and kindness, turning him against his own kind for the first time ever. This stirring tale explores what it means to be different, what it means to be afraid – and ultimately reveals our common humanity even in the face of monstrous evil.
