There are several moment in Wayward Son where for split second the world seems to realign. While the sun, the wind, and the states Kansas and Illinois have all personally offended Baz during his stay, there is the appeal of learning about vampires who do not kill, who know how to keep their teeth in place, and can provide some mentorship that Baz does not have a whole lot of back home.īut his soft heart and foolish optimism (also things that he is personally not a fan of) keep him tied to the mission of putting his entire self out there for Simon Snow to take or leave. Simon may have some work to do, Baz equally has to work through accepting that those around him do not see his need to feed as a disgusting habit that pushes him closer to an animal than a human. Simon points out late in the novel that the discovery of one group of people might be enough to keep Baz at least considering the opportunity to stay in America, namely Vegas. As much as you want to know about the dragons, there is nothing that can’t be left behind.Īnd Baz will be happy to leave it all behind – or will he? to keep the narrative moving – new mythos concerning dragons, new ways to conjure spells, new creatures and people who seek to know them. There is enough mystery in the middle of the U.S.
