"In this second installment of a YA fantasy series, a half faerie must decide whether incarnating a wicked entity will stop a fiendish princess from seizing the throne in the Realm of Faerie ... Mortal-world inhabitant Jade's cynical self-awareness ... adds humor. Anticipating her rescue when captured, she muses: "Isn't that what happened in the enchanted world? Damsels in distress and all."- Kirkus Reviews
