Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Welcome to secret world hidden behind shadowy fairy glamour, where thieving spriggans rob you blind, beautiful banshees mesmerize you with their song, big green trolls kick heads at nightclubs and vampire Mafiosi rule the streets.  Here a seductive magic mirror lies hidden deep in a demons lair, with a simple warning: dont stare at the glass…

Ice is a light-fingered fairy who cant resist a look at the powerful mirror.  She and her fairy friends run confidence games, pretending to be fortune tellers and bedazzling customers with their glamour.  But Ice longs for more—she wants a real life, a respectable job and something to strive for.  The mirror offers her a chance to achieve everything shes ever dreamed of.  But when she pilfers it, she discovers that its power comes with a price: the mirror is a gateway to obsession and madness... and it will take every trick in her arsenal just to survive.

Review:

"This engaging sequel to 2009's Shadowfae weaves rich sensual imagery and dark eroticism into a breathless thriller plot. Thieving fairies, vampire gangsters, powerful demon lords, and creepy earth-bound angels all compete in a frenetic, bloody race to gain possession of a powerful magical artifact, a tiny mirror from Hell that destroys inhibitions. Light-fingered party girl Ice, a strawberry-scented water fairy, finds herself brazenly indulging in both lust and brave anger after she steals the mirror from Kane, demon lord of decadent Melbourne. When she loses it, sexy metal fairy Indigo, attracted to Ice but fearful of connection, offers to betray alliances and help her regain the item, but his own mirror-taint makes him mercurial and impossible to trust. Hayes's characters have distinct and delightful voices, and she's developed considerable skill at blending the gritty and the supernatural." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

A thrilling and darkly erotic tale of betrayal, passion, and redemption, "Shadowfae" is a rich novel that will ensnare the senses with lush prose and a deadly vision of the Fae that conjures fairy tales of old.--Caitlin Kittredge, author of "Second Skin."
