Reach for this book when your teenager is yearning for adventure, struggling with the boundaries of independence, or navigating the intense, sometimes competitive bond of a close friendship or sisterhood. It is an ideal pick for the reader who feels slightly out of step with the modern world and finds solace in history and folklore. The story follows sixteen-year-old Gwen as she travels to Ireland to visit her cousin, Findabhair. Their shared obsession with Irish mythology takes a dangerous turn when they are lured into the realm of Faerie. When Findabhair is kidnapped by the King of Dreams, Gwen must embark on a perilous quest across the Irish landscape to save her. This novel explores deep themes of loyalty, the transition from childhood fantasy to adult reality, and the weight of personal sacrifice. While it features a lush, romantic atmosphere, it remains grounded in the gritty bravery required to protect those we love. Parents will appreciate the way it treats teenage autonomy with respect while highlighting the importance of community and heritage.
