Reviews

"The prophecy that came about in The Girl Who Never Was (2014) is back with a vengeance...political intrigue and magical quest are leavened by some well-timed humor, which makes for a fun read. Dorset sticks to some faerie-story traditions ("There's power in a name," says Selkie, early on), and these details add to the mythic, engrossing atmosphere." - Booklist
"Fans of all thing fae are in for a treat with this follow-up to The Girl Who Never Was...in this rich and vivid sequel, Selkie must put an end to the machinations of her own mother and the Seelie Court-or risk dying. " - School Library Journal
