Ok, so here is another great book, first in the Wings series, that I recon is worth a shot! I did not want to originally read this book, but one of my oldest friends read it and I would be damned if she would read a book that I would not. And I truly liked it! So much so that I went out the next day and bought the rest in the series. I have done the review for a later book in this series a few years ago here on the blog, but I thought that now would be a good chance to do the first book considering how long it has been.

Together with Chelsea, David and Tamani by her side Laurel prepares for a battle for the safety of all fairies. Many will die and many will find that they are destined to do better things, just like David did. There is always some sort of action going on that keeps you one hundred percent attached to the pages, turning the pages so frantically that I got at least two paper cuts...
