Rae Wilder has problems. Plunged into a world of dark magic, fierce creatures and ritual sacrifice, she is charged with a guarding a magical amulet.

The Lord Cleric punched her. Her head flew back and a spray of blood wet the dry mud and spattered over the leaves concealing me. Face wet with tears and whimpering, she tried to crawl toward the trees and dragged up clumps of earth with her fingernails.

"You must let me go." The words sounded muffled, like she had a mouthful of something foul.

The Lord Cleric executed a neat half turn and stamped on her thigh. There was a sharp snap, like I'd picked up a twig and yanked on the ends until the fibers split apart and cracked open. The fairy's leg buckled into an unnatural shape and she screamed. The sound was guttural, a direct translation of pain to sound. I slapped a hand over my mouth to smother my own shriek. Not because of the broken bone, I'd seen and heard tons of those, but because I'd caught the Lord Clerics profile and recognized the handsome face.

This story is really great. Many grammatical errors, but the story itself is really great to delve into.
The main idea is there, however the writing is HORRIBLE! This book could have been a best seller, however due to the lack of help it is pretty much crap.

Loved this book! Found myself unable to keep my nose out. Can't wait until the next instalment. this could be the next "Twlight saga"
A great read. If you don't like this, you probably are not a fan of the genre. Character development of the protagonist is excellent. I would have like more development of fairy-boy and vampire-boy, but that would be a different book. I agree with earlier comments that a good editor could have put a bit of polish on this work, but it did not detract from my enjoyment. Please keep them coming Penelope!
Was completely enthralled by the storyline. Characters are well developed and totally believable. However I felt that the action sequences could have benefited from a clearer writing style, sometimes it's not completely obvious who is talking or what is happening to everyone in the fight scenes.

Overall a fantastic first book from the author. Will be reading the next instalment.
Read this book in widescreen, technicolour. Fantastic.
I loved all the characters,
Great story line, could not put it down.
Looking forward to A Demon Day
Great book, but the literature is awful.
The author is obviously very talented, but the sub/copy editor is obviously not.
The author should really think about hiring a competent editor.
