Publisher Description

To Faedra, faeries were nothing more than the figurines she collected and displayed in her curio cabinet. She was in for a surprise. Faedra had no idea that faeries controlled nature, and with a book no less. Nor did she know that her ancestors had protected an ancient fae amulet for thousands of years. An amulet that, if ever was reunited with the book, would give the wearer power to control the weather, too. She didn't know all this because the one person to teach her died when she was just six years old. Well, now it was time for her to find out....

A letter from the grave reveals her true identity the day of her 18th birthday. But she barely has time to digest the revelation when she is plunged into a fight for her life - and a fight for all mankind.

"I actually was pleasantly surprised with this book. For a first novel, I think the author did a pretty good job. It did have characters that were easy to like. I also enjoy the fairies and the ability they had to shapeshift. I loved the realm of the fae. I thought that some parts did drag a bit and some others were rushed, but I was drawn to the story regardless. Faedra did go through a change, like a lot of other characters on YA fantasy, but I think that the story was genuine and stand on its own. I was left with a lot of questions and I'm hoping that Alison does not take too long writing the sequel. I did like the fact that the romance between Faedra and Faen wasn't too "smoochy"; I think it was balanced quite well. A couple things that did annoyed me were the fact that Faedra could recover so fast using something that I thought was too simple,after using so much energy;I would not say more, though, I'm trying not to spoil the read for anyone. Also for some reason, even when the author it's from England and the story is set on an English countryside, I had a hard time with the voice of the characters, to me they were too American; maybe I just haven't spend enough time around British people, and they do talk just like us? And for a while, the way that she could handle her changes a so fast, and was not freaking out about how to deal with them, was bugging me, but I think after finishing the book,there is a reason for her to react like that, and I'm hoping that on the next book I found my theory is right, otherwise it would start annoying me again. I must admit the book was a bit lacking on action, there are about two scenes were the main character is in danger, but it didn't bother me. Overall, I think this is a good fantasy YA novel, that boys and girls 10 and older can enjoy!!!"

    " Definately an interesting take on the whole demon issue... add a little dystopian into the mix. I really liked the story but I'm not sure it caught me enough to finish the series. The love triangle was a little weird and not as intense as I would have hoped. "

    " A cute story. A nice solid 3.5. There were just a few things with relationship development that is holding me back from giving it a full on 4 stars. "

    " Got this free, and normally I don't like books set in present day (there are of course exceptions), but I had a very hard time putting this book down, stayed up way too late reading, and finished in just over half a day. Can't wait to read the next "

    " The story definitely amps up the further you get into it. I did find it started off a little slowly, but I know that was necessary for character development. I enjoyed reading and the book definitely leaves a small cliffhanger with lots of unanswered questions. "

    " "Over all it was an excellent, quick read. The only corny part was when Faedra's father phoned her in the middle of a battlescene. That kind of ruined the moment...." "

    " YA paranormal fiction. Although it was predictable at times, it had some interesting ideas for the world of the fae. ( fragmented sentneces were distracting) "

    " Fairly predictable along the "comes of age & discovers they have magic/superpowers & now have to save the world" lines. Loved the rapport between the father & daughter. Romance between characters is patently unbelievable. Still, it engaged me enough that I plan on reading the next book. "
