Will the relationship between faerie and human grow stronger, or will Carl’s insistence on controlling things ultimately be his downfall? The boy may have opened himself up to more than faeries and nature spirits when he entered their territory.Over time, he could discover as much about his own living legacy, as anything or anyone he might engage in the forest. Carl has a confusing past and the forest holds answers to questions he never knew he had. A quick witted faerie named Freckleteen, stirs up his tough boy exterior.
