Phil Hastings was a lucky man-he 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 magic-and 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 cool…and the resurrection of a primordial war with a forgotten people-a war that not only the Hastings but the whole human race could lose.

A contemporary novel of masterful horror replete with magic, fantasy, and more than a little stylish eroticism. – The Washington Post.

Feist writes skillfully and his imagination is prolific. – Rave Reviews.

Absorbing, though-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. – The West Coast Review Of Books .
