A story steeped in magical realism about love, fear, and
the thrill of discovering who we were born to be, The
Last Monster is a story about making peace with our
insecurities and defending those who must hide what they
really are. Sofia has never felt special. Not at school, or with her
track team, and especially not since she’s become sick. She’s always been different, but this doesn't make her
stand out . . . it's makes her invisible. Then something
special lands right in Sofia’s lap. An ancient book that
serves as a portal for the Greek philosopher, Xeno, one
of Aristotle’s lost students. Sofia has been chosen to be
the next Guardian. Suddenly Sofia is not only trying to survive middle-
school cliques and first crushes, she’s in charge of
protecting grotesquely beautiful, lonely monsters that
have roamed the Earth for centuries. Drawn into Xeno’s
violent and unpredictable world of mystery, Sofia learns
that loving outsiders has a price.
