The American Fairy

review 1: I am having so much fun with this series. It is very true to the way a fairy tale should be written. That the issues of racial prejudiced of the 1930's is addressed in its many forms from skin color, interracial marriage down to the fairy's even being prejudice to each other; a good morally lesson as all good Tales like this should have. Calliope, the half fairy, half black girl from the Dust Bowl has every Court, both human and fairy, out to get her. She has a lot of pluck and is not a whiner but faces with courage (and compassion; her human side) some very harsh situations.
review 2: This was a worthy sequel to Dust Girl. As the story was shifted to 1930's Hollywood, we got to see more of America in that era. I found it almost as interesting as I did all the ... moreDust Bowl details from the first book. THere was lots of action, revelations and secrets, all making this into an interesting book. Because of the ending, I'm extremely excited for the next installment of this series. I can't wait to see what happens, and how the characters grow even more. less
