Reviews
"[From] Hahn, that master of middle-grade horror.... a fast-paced, suspenseful, surprising tale of evil fairies and family loyalty.... A fun and creepy read."--Kirkus "Hahn... dreams up a delightfully chilling tale of magic and mythology, exploring themes of love, friendship, chosen family, and overcoming one's deepest fears."--Booklist "[A] hero worthy of folk- and fairy tales. The story's twists and turns...provide ample opportunity for old legends to mingle with very human concerns about family, growing up, and bravery."--The Horn Book
