review 1: My first impression of this book was it’s similar to fablehaven (this is not a bad thing). This story is full of elves, fairies, imps, and a fairy godmother (yes, I said fairy godmother) but it has a different twist. Overall this is a great YA book. A couple of problems I had were; there were too many people with unusual names and it was hard to follow, the story was about a set of twins - who has heard of sibling rivalry well there wasn’t any.
review 2: A charming story about 15-year old twins Bain and Erin who are destined to join the alvor race (think elves). A good portion of the book is the twins training in developing their own magical skill bestowed upon them, other magic, sword play, etc., that they will need to know to defend the race. Bain bef... moreriends a shady alv in the woods and is kidnapped by an evil faction of the alvor.Slow to start, but becomes exciting as the story progresses.Readalike to Fablehaven. Also some elements reminded me of the Inheritance trilogy. less
