Fairy Saga

"C'était surtout en hiver qu'on nous enfermait de bonne heure; il fallait attendre quatre heures au moins avant que tout le monde fût endormi, aussi était-ce un tumulte, un vacarme de rires, de jurons, de chaînes qui sonnaient, une vapeur infecte, une fumée épaisse, un brouhaha de têtes rasées, de fronts stigmatisés, d'habits en lambeaux, tout cela encanaillé, dégoûtant; oui, l'homme est un animal vivace! on pourrait le définir: un être qui s'habitue à tout, et ce serait peut-être là la meilleure définition qu'on en ait donnée."

"The Fairies" is a classic folk tale by Charles Perrault. Once upon a time there was a widow who had two daughters. The elder was often mistaken for her mother, so like her was she both in nature and in looks. Both of them were so disagreeable and arrogant that no one could live with them. The younger girl, who was a true likeness of her father in the gentleness and sweetness of her disposition, was also one of the most beautiful girls imaginable. The mother doted on the elder daughter naturally enough, since she resembled her so closely; and she disliked the younger one just as intensely.

As an environmental studies major, Allie knows the planet is in trouble - a series of natural disasters recently rocked the northern hemisphere, and species across the globe are going extinct.

And Allie most definitely doesn't know that her existence is the only thing stopping Nott from dragging the earth into total darkness.

All that stands between the advancing army of trolls and the endangered fortress of Phylangan is a coalition force led by Alfadas, human hero and protector. He’s amassed his own legion of swordsmen, elves, and ragtag thieves to stave off the enemy. And the next move they make could be the most dangerous one of all. Those Alfadas has left behind are more vulnerable than ever - including his star-crossed elven love; their newborn child; and Queen Emerelle herself, who remains comatose and is powerless to safeguard her compromised kingdom.
