Summary

The emperor of the enchanted Faerie Realm has been murdered and now Pyrgus, his son, is the Emperor Elect. As Pyrgus contemplates his new responsibilities as emperor, his father's body is stolen! Hairstreak, evil leader of the Faeries of the Night, and his wicked henchmen have resurrected it as a zombie and plan to take control of the kingdom. Pyrgus and his courageous sister Holly Blue are banished from the realm and stripped of their magical powers.

Dark and light combined

The second installment in the Faerie Wars series. Every bit as good as the first book if not better. Gerard Doyle provides and excellent interpretation. This series will probably appeal to those who like Artemis Fowl as well as Jonathan Stroud's Bartimeous trilogy. A cross-over between our reality and the fearie realm the story proves entertaining for both the kids and the adults in the house.
