The first time I read this was, I think, in 5th grade and I absolutely loved it! If I could find it, I would definitely read it again. (Alas, I lost my copy) This books is a great read for kids and young teens who love romance and fantasy. It was probably the first book I ever sat down and read the whole way through that wasn't a picture book. (Sad, I know) If you like trolls, princesses, evil queens, telepathic powers... Well, you'll love this book. It's still one of my favorites, and I'm 18!

Books like this go to show that faeries aren't sweet, innocent creatures. I loved this book the very first time I read it. It kept me hooked. I lost a lot of sleep over this book because I just couldn't put it down. It has a very unique storyline. I'd say the book is best suited for late teens and young adults as it has some "F" words in it, among other things... but it's a very great book. 5 stars!

I didn't like this book as much as Tithe or Ironside. It's not because it tore away from the story in the first one, I just didn't like it as much. It didn't keep me as interested... But it was still a good book I suppose.
