Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)

Welcome to the realm of very scary faeries!

Sixteen-year-old Kaye is a modern nomad. Fierce and independent, she travels from city to city with her mother's rock band until an ominous attack forces Kaye back to her childhood home. There, amid the industrial, blue-collar New Jersey backdrop, Kaye soon finds herself an unwilling pawn in an ancient power struggle between two rival faerie kingdoms -- a struggle that could very well mean her death.

Lana J thinks this book is Excellent.

This book is awfully good. The book made me believe that this fairy tale was real. It reminds me of when you are little and believe anything can happen. The main girl, Kaye, is a teenager who is a changeling. The plot keeps you wondering what is going to happen next to the girl and her friends. The world of fairies is a twisted place that makes you wonder how Kaye is going to work out her problems with all the fairies. I especially liked the part where Kaye meets a fairy knight for the first time.

I never wanted to put the book down. I wasn’t fazed by anything, even my sibling screaming in my ear. I read the book in one night! It kept surprising me when ever I turned a page. The book is amazing. The author wrote an extraordinary book for everyone to read.

I have read the entire series from beginning to the end. I wish there were more books than the three that there is, but I don’t think wishes come true like in the book. I love this book more than the rest. I recommend this book to anyone who wants a good modern fairy tale.
