She vaults away into the night sky, and his unbelievable-and unbelieved-encounter leads to a stunning revelation that all the creatures of myth and legend are real!
Fairies, pixies, trolls, werewolves, ogres, vampires, angels, elves, bigfoot-all are alien exiles to the planet. For their crimes, these "mythicals" are serving out banishment disguised in flesh-suits enabling them to live among the planet's natives.Jack reveals their secret to the world, along with a horrendous discovery: they have decided that the native "terminal species" must be eradicated before it ruins its home planet's ecology.
