About this listen

Morris Award Finalist, 2011

Debut novelist Karen Healey taps Maori mythology for this fresh spin on the fantasy genre. Seventeen-year old Ellie Spencer has a crush on the cute and mysterious Mark. That’s the normal part of her life. But something terrifying also haunts Ellie and her community. People are being killed—and their eyes are being removed. Ellie soon learns two shocking truths. First, Mark is part patupaiarehe, the Maori equivalent of a fairy. Second, a war is brewing.

What the critics say

"Healey pulls readers in immediately with Ellie’s funny, occasionally profane and often self-deprecating voice.” ( Kirkus Reviews)

Do not judge Saskia from this performance

Saskia Maarleveld is one of my favourite narrators but I am so glad this is NOT the first book I heard her narrate. She did an awful job. I am so glad she has practiced her craft and is so much better at it. The story was so so. I only listened for the narrator and because it was set in New Zealand.
