Holly
Black,
the
first
book
in
a
stunning
new
series
about
a
mortal
girl
who
finds
herself
caught
in
a
web
of
royal
faerie
intrigue.
And
Cardan
is
even
more
beautiful
than
the
rest.
I
hate
him
more
than
all
the
others.
I
hate
him
so
much
that
sometimes
when
I
look
at
him,
I
can
hardly
breathe.
Jude
was
seven
years
old
when
her
parents
were
murdered
and
she
and
her
two
sisters
were
stolen
away
to
live
in
the
treacherous
High
Court
of
Faerie.
Ten
years
later,
Jude
wants
nothing
more
than
to
belong
there,
despite
her
mortality.
But
many
of
the
fey
despise
humans.
Especially
Prince
Cardan,
the
youngest
and
wickedest
son
of
the
High
King.
To
win
a
place
at
the
Court,
she
must
defy
him--and
face
the
consequences.
In
doing
so,
she
becomes
embroiled
in
palace
intrigues
and
deceptions,
discovering
her
own
capacity
for
bloodshed.
But
as
civil
war
threatens
to
drown
the
Courts
of
Faerie
in
violence,
Jude
will
need
to
risk
her
life
in
a
dangerous
alliance
to
save
her
sisters,
and
Faerie
itself.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Firru . a dat nota:
Jude is a fantastic main character. She's cunning, witty, and so supremely dark. Perhaps darker than Cardan himself at times. She's complex (so is everyone else) and relatable and easily has one of the strongest voices I've come across in a YA novel. I loved how complicated things get with her sisters and Madoc's family, and how buried some of the secrets are. Oh man. What a cool (and awful) family dynamic. I also looooved how vivid the royal family .

* "Another fantastic, deeply engaging, and all-consuming work from Black that belongs on all YA shelves."—School Library Journal, starred review
* "Jude, who struggles with a world she both loves and hates and would rather be powerful and safe than good, is a compelling narrator. Whatever a reader is looking for--heart-in-throat action, deadly romance, double-crossing, moral complexity--this is one heck of a ride."—Booklist, starred review
"This is a heady blend of Faerie lore, high fantasy, and high school drama, dripping with description that brings the dangerous but tempting world of Faerie to life. Black is building a complex mythology; now is a great time to tune in."—Kirkus Reviews

"Lush,
dangerous,
a
dark
jewel
of
a

Black's
world
is
intoxicating,
imbued
with
a
relentless
sense
of
peril
that
kept
me

through

journey.
And
Jude!
She
is
a
heroine
to
love--brave

pragmatic,
utterly
human.
This
delicious
story
will
seduce
you
and
leave
you
desperate
for
just

An instant bestseller!
By #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black, the first book in a stunning new series about a mortal girl who finds herself caught in a web of royal faerie intrigue.
Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.
To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences.
In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.
