Sixteen-year-old Kaye Fierch is a fierce, strong, and independent girl. Besides being Asian and blonde and traveling with her mother, Ellen’s, various rock bands for most of her life, Kaye always believed herself to be your average, ordinary human.That is, until, she unexpectedly comes across faery knight Roiben one night in the woods and saves his life. From there, Kaye is thrown into a world she though was only part of her overactive childhood imagination. Life as she knows it will never be the same.
It actually took me a while to read this book as so many good books came in the post last month so I really struggled to follow the plot sometimes. I did, however, enjoy the book. Kaye is a typical underprivileged teenager, with a mum who really shouldn't be a mum. Her maturity is not suprising and she really is the parent in her family. Her relationship with Roiben is tense and it makes for interesting reading.
The plot between in Seelie and Unseelie Courts is quite complicated and takes a while to digest. The dynamic between the knights of the Seelie and Unseelie Courts is quite viscious and the hatred between the two jumps out the pages at you.
Overall, this is a good book. I love her Spiderwick Chronicles series and this is a very adult version.
