âA contemporary novel of masterful horror replete with magic, fantasy, and more than a little stylish sensuality.ââThe Washington Post
Phil Hastings was a lucky manâhe had money, a growing reputation as a screenwriter, a happy, loving family with three kids, and he'd just moved into the house of his dreams in rural of magicâand about to be altered irrevocably by a magic more real than any he dared imagine.
For with the Magic came the Bad Thing, and the Faerie, and then the Fool . . . and the resurrection of a primordial war with a forgotten Peopleâa war that not only the Hastings but the whole human race could lose.
âAbsorbing, thought-provoking, and thoroughly magical. Feist's skillfully crafted prose illuminates many of the darker sides of fairy stories. . . . Try it as a bedtime story . . . but only on nights when you can take some time getting to sleep.ââThe West Coast Review of Books
