Alina is dead and her sister Mac has returned to Ireland, the country that expelled them, to hunt her sister's murderer. But after discovering that she descends from a bloodline both gifted and cursed, she descends into an epic battle between humans and Fae immortals as the Sinsar Dubh turns on her, and begins mowing a deadly path through those she loves. Mac's journey will force her to face the truth of her exile, and make a choice that will either save the world ... or destroy it.

You will like this, if this is the sort of thing you like submitted by jentalley on August 12, 2011, 9:55am If you've plowed through the rest of the series and don't already thing that Mac is the stupidest heroine ever to grace the pages of an urban-fantasy-romance-fairy mash-up, you might not be as appalled by this book as I was. I read the first and second books in this series, skimmed the next installments, and then read this, sort of (I still don't know why) and found the entire plot and all of the characterization fairly appalling. I skipped huge chunks of it and didn't miss anything, as far as I could tell, except that everything that happens still is because none of these characters can just sit down and have a conversation. The fact that bad fairies (yes, really) take over the world and bring about Armageddon, killing millions of people while they are at it, is skimmed over in favor of more discussion about Mac's nail polish and what Jericho really is. Unless you're a masochist, really, don't bother.
