Series: Faerie Path | Publication Date: January 26, 2010

Far from the Realm of Faerie, a quest to save immortality . . .

A deadly plague is sweeping through Faerie, and no one is immune to its bite. Now, with the guidance of the Dream Weaver, Tania, Rathina, and a mortal ally, Connor, must head off to find the Divine Harper—the only one who can help Tania renew the Faerie Covenant of Immortality. Their quest will soon take them outside the borders of Faerie, to hostile and unwelcoming lands beyond.

On their travels, Tania and her companions encounter danger at every turn as they battle pirates, contend with mysterious and mystical beings, and try to outwit those under the sinister grip of the Dark Arts. But when Tania's beloved Edric appears, it looks as if they have help at last. Or do they? As tensions and dangers rise, Tania is forced to question everything and everyone around her in order to decide if she is prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice to save her loved ones.

This review is from: Faerie Path #5: The Enchanted Quest (Paperback)

I have actually read the whole series before, and I decided to reread it when The Charmed Return came out just to refamiliarize myself with everything. I can honestly say that this time, just as much as the first time, I have loved this series. It is a fantastic young adult series. It is a good clean novel that is very age appropriate, yet it is still fun and exciting and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I tend to stick to young adult novels because I like the fact that there isn't a lot of if any cursing or inappropriate behavior, so I appreciate it even more for this.

The writing of Frewin Jones is amazing. Not just the story itself, but the actual writing of the story. The punctuation was great, the sentence structuring was great. You don't really realize just how much bad writing can affect a novel until you read a story with such good writing. Anita/Princess Tania is a very well rounded, smart, self reliant and strong main character. All of the supporting characters can hold up the story in their own right. You can really understand what that character would feel, and you take it to heart. The setting of this series, in the Mortal World as well as the Faerie Realm, comes alive. The writer gives enough description that you can close your eyes and imagine yourself in London or in the Faerie Palace or Bronwn Tyr. The story itself is a fast paced story that keeps you interested. It grows and evolves throughout the stories instead of just having the same story told yet again.

If you love great stories, even if you may not be a fan of faerie stories, I encourage you to give this story a try. Young adults, or adults like me, I honestly think if you give it a chance, you will be just as pleased as I have been.

This is my first review, so forgive me if it isn't great. I will do my best to improve! Hope this helps!
