Synopsis

It's been thirteen years since the Dark Years ended. Thirteen years since the mad War Faery responsible was imprisoned in stone. Now, with goblin attacks on the rise it seems Galanta, the Goblin Queen, is intent on returning the land to chaos and terror.

Isadora Scrumpleton is trying not to think about the Dark Years. She's just been chosen by her "familiar," found out she's half faery, and discovered she's dating the second-in-line to the Faery Throne. That's enough for one teenage witch to handle. But when goblins attack her village, Izzy is forced into action, ultimately joining the elite Border Guard and attracting the attention of Galanta, the Goblin Queen.

As Galanta weaves a web of deceit, Izzy struggles to control her powers. Will she be able to stop the Goblin Queen in time, or will the world be plunged into a dark new reality?

Goodreads review by Thomas

This is a fast paced fantasy with a good amount of humor. Hayden is fully prepared to be embarrassed in her final test before graduating as she hasn't found her familiar yet. Therefore she hasn't come into her powers. As the classroom is making fun of her, nobody in the building is more surprised than......more
