Sure can't wait to read more by this author. Enjoyed book 1 and 2 very much. Characters are wonderful along with their adventures.

This is the 2nd book of the series Faerie Wars. I actually liked this one better than the first. This book takes place mostly in the Faerie World. There we meet up with characters from the first book like Pyrgus, Henry, Mr. Fogarty, Blue, Hairstreak, Brimstone, etc. It picks up a couple weeks after the last one left off. Pyrgus is getting ready to become Emperor but he doesn't really want to. All of the sudden he finds out that he doesn't have to because his deceased father is back. From there it justs rolls with adventure for everyone.
I personally didn't have a problem with the abrupt ending. I know sequels sometimes do that and looking for to book 3 - Ruler of the Realm to clear things up.

This is second in in the series-takes up where Henry lands in the Faerie land-this is a good read for accelerated readers and young adults if you like fantasy type. It is interesting with the twists of fate within the faerie world/some light teenage angst/zombie father coming back. Overall, my daughter(who is 12) and I liked it.
