16 year old Meghan Chase had always felt as though she never fit in; be it school or home. Everything starts to unravel before her very eyes as she sets out on a journey to rescue her stolen little brother from Nevernever (Land of Fey). She soon finds out that she's the daughter of a mythical faery king, and what will become of her love for a young prince with an icy heart...
Finished it – yay for reading on the train!~
I'm a sucker for shounen and shoujo and this is a mix of both which made me really happy and glad that I picked it up. The hero has character and depth; Meghan is very likable and relatable – those parts in the mortal world anyway. The my fetish for cats is satiated here too! A talking cat! YESH! Ha! And the prince – first thing I thought was: Ash? Isn't that the pokemon guy name? XD Anyway, he's a good match for our hero. Yay! New shipping... >.<
This book is people friendly; great for people who have never read anything about faeries – not Tinkerbell-ish type – before and want a good adventure/romance/fantasy book. ;P
