A Kid's Review
This would be the more grim of the Faerie Path series. Like the 1st was the more love story, and the 2nd was the more idk. I wouldn't recomend this book to tweens under the age of 12(possbily 11)because this book is violent, and umm... there's not many 'happy' moments. But it is very good and hard to put down.
Cordelia, Edric, Sancha, Titana, Tiana, and Zara escape safely from the Gray Nights of Lyonesse, in London, only to find what used to be lush gardens are now dried up and dead, King Oberon is imprisoned in an Amber Prison and their home is pretty much destroyed.
Sancha, Tania, Zara and Edric head into the palace looking for King Oberon, while Titana and Cordelia stay hidden in the woods. While Sneaking around Tania and Eden find out that the Sorcer King is to burn Sancha's precious library. Sancha, while the library is burning around her, tries to grab the soul books. She is unsucessful but Tania is able to grab a few pages of her father's soul book, which tells them he at the desolate island of Ynis Maw.
Zara, Cordelia, Tania and Edric head toward Ynis Maw, but an unfourtunate event happens, leading them to Caer Kymry, where Hopie is.
Cordelia, Tania and Edric set free Oberon on Ynis Maw. On the way the make new friends. There is a big battle, near the palace, and tradgedy happens. Like all the books I've read this one has a happy ending.
Unlike the other books in the preivous books, this one does not tell of another sequel, but there could still be one. I hope there is another book. (I hope I haven't told too much.)
This book also makes me believe that the Faerie Path series would be an excellent movie.

Terrible let down, April 28, 2008
wow, this fell flat. It's total fluff, but compared to the first two it's not even a satisfactory enough fluff read for me. I skimmed the last 100 pages just to know how the ending went. It's a shame. The first book was ok, the second book was real interesting... this one? Not so much. I didn't even care about the relationship between Edric and Tania, and that's sad... when the fluffy romantic plotline fails to compel the reader what does that say? Atrocious ending makes for a mediocre read.

A Kid's Review
The Faerie books are the best books I have ever read.I think adults would like them too. But kids will LOVE them because it is filled with a world that they can dream of at night.It is a place where they can escape to after a hard day at school.If you have not read these books then you have missed out on a piece of life!
