I received a free copy of this book from the author via Rachel's Random Resources in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are my own.
Avery Lightfoot and Zäria are best friends. They hang out and go on adventures together all the time. One day while they are on one of their adventures they stumble into Eerie Hollow and find elves making tons and tons of chocolate. Unsure what to make of this, the two faeries consider if they should go tell Queen Yamani what they have found. Instead of telling the queen they decide to go in for a closer look. It doesn't take long for things to go sour when they get caught by the evil Thordon. As punishment for their trespassing Thordon plans to make them his eternal slaves, unless they can complete a dangerous task for him. Meeting new friends and enemies along the way the two faeries have to either survive their task or become slaves.
This story was so cute! I thought it was simply adorable. At the beginning of the story we find out Avery has just turned 100 years old on the day our tale begins, Zäria turned 100 years old a couple months prior. In human hears that would put them somewhere in their teens according to the text.
Avery and Zäria were such cute character's. Avery made me laugh as he just such a relaxed and enjoyable character. Zäria was a regular "teenage" girl to me, I didn't find anything about her to extraordinary other than that one thing (spoiler! hehe), but it wasn't about who she was as a faerie so it didn't impact my opinion of her. Queen Yamani was alright. She was important to the story but she wasn't a favorite of mine. I felt bad for Thordon. I know he had his issues and yes he did technically throw a fit and do that really bad thing that I can't say cause it's a spoiler BUT he did go through a lot.
The only thing I didn't like about this book is I felt it was a little rushed. Everything happened rather quickly and I feel like there could have been a lot more done with the story. However, it is a fairly short book at only 159 pages for the actual story so you should expect quick resolves. For a short book, a lot of stuff happens and I think that is why it comes off as rushed. It could of easily been spread out at least another 50 pages.
This cute little story has everything fantastical you could ask for. Faeries, elves, magic, a dragon, epic battles, first love, first kiss, betrayal, evil witches and so much more! I really liked it. I enjoyed reading it and found it a fun little read. I recommend this book for all the fantasy lovers of any age.
