She's learning to work with fae in her life
A brilliantly written UF read, set in a small village the south of France. With French and Greek folklore, myths, magic, humor, family and friendships, action, adventure, great characters, a dash of romance and an army of tiny men with axes who live for pillaging and a good fight (they're very helpful and polite).

This follows on nicely from "Folkloric" with Camille still keen to pursue a degree in her passion of folklore. She's got the role of assistant to Dr. Margot Joly for a week while she's in town with her team of researchers from the University of Toulouse’s Folklore Department. It's her dream and she's hoping they'll also take a look at her paper on the subject. But with Lucas still trying to get her to train as a Keeper and her Grampi trying to talk her out of it; she doesn't think anything can make the week more difficult, until her parents decide to stay for a visit as well. With cracks growing in the Bounds, someone attacking sheep with acid, increasing sightings of golden horned sheep and goblins causing trouble for the research project, Camille needs her friends, both human and fae. With Lucas helping her, and turning everything into a training session, they've got their hands full. I particularly liked Lucas in this as we get to know more about him, and a little of his family; we also get to see him more of his Drac form. Am hoping we'll see more of his family in the next book as there are definitely things he's not telling Camille about them. - "I'm not going to bite, Camille," he said with a smirk. "No, actually, knowing me, I might. But you'll have to take the risk." Another great story by Karenza, with a huge mix of fae, goblins, cyclopes and other creatures; and not forgetting the Men of Bedeilhac. |
