Moon is a shape-shifter who has been living among the tribes of the earth. He knows he doesn't belong but he is lonely. All he knows is that he is different from the others but can't find anyone like him. When he is viewed shifting he is staked in a clearing where he is rescued by Stone, an older man of his kind. They are the Raksura - shape-shifters who live in colonies. Moon is recruited by Stone to come to his colony where he is challenged by many. He discovered that he is a consort, whatever that is.

Moon feels out of place in the colony, especially when he is challenged by some of the warriors, making him unsure whether or not he should stay. The queen, Pearl, is working with the fell, enemies of the Raksura. Her efforts are unsettling to Moon and many in the colony. And, when the fell capture most of the colony, they realize that their fears have been justified. Pearl approves a journey by Jade, a young queen, and Moon to find a poison that prevents fell from shifting into their flying forms. The two encounter and kill a ruler who is following them. They finally obtain the poison and the recipe for making it and join the others.

It's important to discover how the fell knows what is happening within the Raksura and how they can track others like Jade and Moon. Their discoveries lead to a final battle as the Raksura fight to retrieve the young of their colony and destroy the fell. It's a light fun read!
