The uneasy truce between the Seelie Court and the Sluagh Horde is in peril as greedy nobles on both sides threaten to destroy the fragile peace. Meanwhile, amongst the common fairy folk, the Brother/Sisterhood of Afflicted and Repressed Fairies (B.A.R.F.) is calling for revolution. The one chance Elfame may have to maintain the peace is a fairy rade organized by Prince Beow of the Sluagh and Princess Viola of the Seelie.
But when the two are kidnapped, can Shade, Ginch, and the Professor save them and prevent the fairy lands from descending into chaos? This humorous fantasy is perfect for middle grade readers (ages 9+) who enjoy adventure, quirky characters, and a touch of political satire.
Whatever expectations you have of delightful and whimsical fairies are sure to be disappointed. There are certainly fairies, but most are not proper fairies. Our heroine is, perhaps, the worst offender.
Shade the sprite is truly dreadful at being a proper fairy—she’d rather re-read her favorite stories than do what fairies should. She is on a most unfortunate quest, with exceedingly questionable companions, to find a place her outré self can call home. A place of companionship, comfort, and, most importantly, a positive plethora of books.
