Three months after the events of Wicked Lovely (2007), Aislinn and
her boyfriend, Seth, are still trying to figure out the complex
world of Faerie. Though Aislinn, as the Summer Queen, has an
antagonistic relationship with the Winter Queen, Donia, Donia's
frigidity is the least of Aislinn's problems. Elsewhere in the
city, two sisters representing Order and Chaos predict war for
Faerie. The overwrought, repetitive writing (one character "quirks
his brow" at no fewer than three points in the book) that is Marr's
trademark does not let up for a moment here. In spite of this, the
plots of multiple love triangles and impending war manage to move
much more smoothly from scene to scene than in Wicked Lovely or the
companion Ink Exchange (2008). Romantics will be touched by Seth's
undying, if blind, devotion to the ever-more-untouchable Aislinn;
he goes so far as to become a faery himself in order to be with her
forever. Like its predecessors, this book is a few hundred pages of
mediocrity underneath an exquisite cover, and it will fly off
library and bookstore shelves. (Fantasy. YA) (Kirkus Reviews)
Mortal affections and faery rivalries continue to collide in the
town of Huntsdale, as New York Times bestselling author Melissa
Marr takes urban fantasy to new heights. After the terrible events
of Ink Exchange, the Dark Court has a new ruler. But will Niall's
kindness survive his new responsibility to the most violent of
Faerie courts? Meanwhile, Seth and Aislinn attempt to mend their
relationship. But Aislinn is the Summer Queen and Keenan is her
king - and as summer approaches, their chemistry sparks. Will
Seth's mortality lose him the one thing he loves above all others?
As Niall seeks to control his new Court, Aislinn attempts to resist
the seduction of summer, and Seth searches desperately for the gift
of immortality, a delicate balance is threatened, and a terrible
plot is revealed...
