In the years after a mysterious cataclysm wipes out civilization, Janabai Shepherd grows up doing what any normal, post-apocalyptic farm girl would do. She plays with her friends, goes to school, works in the fields, tends her herd of goats, chases a boy who likes her best friend, gets her heart broken, and takes her turn out on post, guarding Shiva Puri village against Kali, the yellow-eyed demon, who prowls just beyond the wire. What does he want, this demon? Well, to eat people, of course. He is, after all, a monster, but more than anything, Kali has his heart set on Janabai Shepherd, his bride-to-be. Alas, there is nothing more foolish than a demon in love. "Numerous stories tell of apocalyptic futures and community struggles for survival, but Bob Jenkins' ability to blend a powerful saga of monsters, demons and love into an overall coming-of-age story makes for a creation that is hard to define and impossible to put down; very highly recommended, especially for fans of the apocalyptic fiction genre looking for something refreshingly different."
