The Faerie Path Audiobook Summary

An ordinary girl discovers she is a lost princess of Faerie–and is torn between two worlds and between two loves.

Anita was living an ordinary life, until an elegant stranger pulled her into another world. She discovers she is Tania, the lost princess of Faerie. Since Tania’s mysterious disappearance on the eve of her wedding five hundred years before, Faerie has been sunk in gloom. With her return, Faerie comes alive again. But Tania can’t forget Anita’s world, or the boy she loved there.

Torn between two loves and between two worlds, Tania comes to realize why she disappeared so long ago. There is a magical ability that only she possesses, and that she must use to stop a sinister plan that threatens not only her, but the entire world of Faerie.

Please go here to see the complete review: http://incandescentenchantments.blogs...The Good:Honestly, I think everything about this book is amazing! Frewin Jones is one of my favorite all-time authors, along with Rachel Caine, Shannon Hale, Cassandra Clare, and Cinda Williams Chima. What did I love about this book, you're wondering? I guess it would be the setting, England, which I love. The Arthurian dresses. The sisters were fun and delightful. Hopie, the healer, Sancha the reader, Rathina my least favorite, Eden and the Mystic Arts, Zara the flirter, Cordelia the animal lover, and the main character, Tania, who is in love Edric and wishes to keep her fairy wings forever.Faerie was a beautiful land, similar to London, England. The palace was beautiful, large and grand. The fairy children could fly. I thought was pretty cool.The Bad:I honestly do not think there was anything that I did not like in this book. Everything was amazing!The Guys:The guys in The Faerie Path are Gabriel Drake and Edric. Gabriel is a duke, rich, handsome, powerful. And a practicer of the Mystic Arts. Beautiful yet eerie silver eyes. Polite, yet I think he is the "bad boy" in the story. Read the book and you will see what I mean.Edric is the other love interest. At the beginning of the book, Edric and Tania/Anita are already dating. I liked him, but I thought he was weak. Not as a character, but physically and mentally. He seemed kind of hopeless. But, I did not mind. I liked the change. The Faerie Path made Edric sort-of like the "damsel-in-distress."Random Quote:Her face gazed back at her.Queen Titania's face.Her face.They were one and the same. ~pg. 160The End:I urge you to read these series. This is my second time reading the series, and I still love them. The Faerie Path series is a fun, light read full of magic and wonder.

My guess is you would like this book if u like those books about magic and mystery and love. Don't worry. this book isn't as "fruity tooty" as it sounds. I personnaly read it in about 4 days. Anita is a girl growing up in present day London. It is her 16th birthday and she receives a mysterious book with no return address. Inside it says: Faeries tread the Faerie Path Amber trapped though moth wing light they be Mortals stay in mortal world Iron clad with half blind eyes they see One alone will walk both worlds Daughter last of daughters seven With her true love by her side Honest hand and true love given Her boyfriend Evan takes her on a boat ride. He is about to tell her some big news but sees something on the water. As he speeds away from it they crash into the bridge. She wakes up in the hospital room and finds that Evan has gone missing. The next morning a mysterious, ghost of a stranger comes and leads her into the land of Faerie. Faerie has been in 500 years of darkness since princess Tania vanished.500 years ago, on the eve of her wedding, princess Tania and her sister were sitting on the bed when Tania vanished without a trace... The man who took her here (Gabriel, her betrothed) tells Anita that she is Tania, The 7th daughter of Oberon, lost in the mortal world for 500 years. According to the poem she can walk between both worlds. Gabriel takes her to the king, her father. He is so delighted to have her back that he ends the 500 years darkness and all are happy again. While there she meets her 6 sisters. music loving Zara, book loving Sancha, Animal loving Cordelia, the gifted healer Hopie, and beautiful Rathina. The 6th sister Eden never leaves her overgrown tower. A long time ago, Tania vanished, the queen Titania and Eden were out on the boat, when it overturned and she drowned. The king was so heart broken that he put 500 years of night. As she learns about the castle (and her "love" Gabriel) she more and more, and even learns some secrets that should have been reveled a long time ago. I liked this book alot and i highly recomend it :).

** spoiler alert ** What I think about my independent book is that it a really good book it a fantasy, action , romance book and I really like it how it have all of the General in it.The Faerie Path by Frewin Jones, it about how a fairy princess get lost in the mortal world and get help by a guy she full in love with but she have to married another guy who just want her power and her mom disappear and her older sister betray her.Pros- what I like about the book is that there romance, action, and fantasy and how she have to save her world from the guys she gonna get married and it also give you that feeling where you wonder what gonna happen next.Cons-what I don’t like about the book is that there are a lot of thing going on like her mom disappear, her sister betray her, the give who she love is help her get married to someone else, and the person who she getting married to just want her power so he can rule both world.Those who like fantasy, action, and romance all together should read this book because it a really good book and a fun book it also make you feel excited.

I liked this book quite a bit. The story takes you through a young girls struggle to believe that she is a fairy from the land of Faerie. I cant describe as well as the books synopsis the main idea of the story. I can say however that there is some betrayal, love, discovery, and strength in the story and is an enjoyable read if you like a bit of fantasy.

Leaning between 3.5-4. I found these books at a bookstore, left them, and then could not stop thinking about them. So I went and bought them. I love to call them my Darling Rancid Books, and I say that with all the affection. I went into these books not expecting ANYTHING good. I wouldn’t say I’m pleasantly surprised but I was somewhat pleasantly surprised. For gods sake, it kept me more entertained than some certain current YA books I’ve read. The descriptions were beautiful, but not overbearing. Also, the PLOT TWISTS?!? Loved those.Dialogue was to be expected from a 2007 book, but I didn’t exactly find myself cringing at it. Maybe it’s because I pre-desensitized myself? I’m not sure. The names were kinda fun. Anita was cool, Tania less cool. Gabriel (Beloved: I gave them all nicknames) Drake was very stereotypical and I loved it. Edric (Sassypants) was nicer? Can’t remember half of the sisters names tho. Don’t ask me to 😭Only thing I hate about the books are the covers, but that’s probably just because I cannot stand people on covers.

AS I write this, it is 1:32 AM, and I'm actually on the fifth book in the series, The Enchanted Quest.I loved this series when I was about eleven or twelve. Devoured every book I could find at the library (which unfortunately did not include the third book, The Sorcerer King/The Seventh Daughter, widely considered the best in the series. I skipped that one, and was rather stunned to find that (view spoiler)[Zara died and Rathina was no longer a villain (hide spoiler)]) and had a literary crush on Edric. (one of many I developed in my middle school years, when I was constantly changing schools and had no friends, so I spent lunch reading books) I decided a couple of months ago I would re-read it from start to finish, since Libby had the entire series available for checkout as e-books.What I remembered going in:-Tania is a Mary Sue, moreover she is an obnoxious one at that. Even at eleven years old I was frequently frustrated with her.-Edric and Rathina are the most interesting characters in the main cast.-Tania's sisters are characterized strongly but fade into the background in the last three books. Hopie and Sancha don't really stick out very much to begin with.-Somebody died, but I couldn't remember who.-Gabriel Drake was sketchy from the moment he's introduced and (view spoiler)[it becomes painfully obvious about halfway through the first book that he will betray everyone (hide spoiler)].-Tania's attitude toward Edric in particular is weird and cringeworthy. He's supposed to be her true love, but she treats him like a criminal because he ignored her in front of his boss one time. I'm assuming this is what the author thinks teenage girls are like.-Speaking of which, despite the sparkly cover and the fact this is obviously geared toward girls, it was written by a guy.-There was a manga for some reason???What I see now:-Tania is still definitely a Mary Sue, but oddly enough she didn't bother me as much. Probably because I know what to expect and have seen much worse...-Edric appears to be an interesting character because he's mysterious. There's a lot of implication as to his backstory/past, but Frewin Jones never goes into detail about his time as Gabriel's servant or as Captain of Weir. This creates the effect of making him simultaneously frustrating and even more beguiling, because the imagination of the reader begins to take hold and fill in the gaps. I imagine Edric got some sort of training before he was sent into the Mortal realm; I wonder what that was like. (view spoiler)[And his time spent dictating Gabriel's Dark Arts spells to paper allowed him to eventually become a sorcerer in his own right! (hide spoiler)] I wanted to know more about him, but he never talks about his past, and Tania, despite being his girlfriend, never asks.-Speaking of which, (view spoiler)[subplot wherein Edric begins to fall to the Dark Arts and become corrupted by evil magic is half-baked. I had completely forgotten about it, mostly because (hide spoiler)] the later books took a nosedive as far as quality. Everything feels rushed and not thought out.-That said, one of the strengths of these books is the pacing. The plot is always moving, although some of the more formulaic elements (ride a horse, get to location A, spend the night, something goes wrong, leave in a hurry, ride a horse, get to location B, spend the night, if something doesn't go wrong, leave anyway, ride a horse...) do get tiresome after a while.-The writing is not that good. I say that even with my rosy nostalgia goggles, which allowed me to ignore some of the dodgier aspects and focus on enjoying the story and the sensation of being a little girl in Faerie again. Case in point, as others have already pointed out, the first book begins with our protagonist describing herself in the mirror. Laaaame.-Rathina does have an interesting character arc, but she eventually gets regulated to Action Girl. She also appears to have swapped personalities with the aggressive war-mongering Cordelia, who is of course (view spoiler)[sick and out of picture for most of the last three books. (hide spoiler)]-Gabriel isn't quite as scary as I remember.-In fact, the Sorcerer King isn't really scary at all. Sure, I liked that scene in the banquet hall where he's introduced, but because this is a femme YA novel, a lot of the gorier details are left out. Unfortunately, this effectively de-fangs the cobra.-Oberon and Titania are very... domestic? I mean, this is King Oberon and Queen Titania, a literary couple famous for quarreling and casting petty spells on each other to make Titania fall in love with a donkey-man and such nonsense. There's not much here to separate them from Anita's mortal parents. Which I guess makes it harder for her to decide between them, but a better writer would've given each traits unique to them which she can't live without.Don't get me wrong. This series is still all of my girlhood dreams and flights of fancy distilled to their purest, most glitter-y form. The main character finds out she's a Faerie princess. She has seven sisters she never knew existed. (I have none.) She gets to ride a wild unicorn. She goes into battle wearing armor made of seashells and wielding a crystal sword. She had wings when she was a child that withered when she grew up, as all Faerie children's must. Her boyfriend is Edric Chanticleer. come ON.It is now 2:15 AM. I must go before I make even more of a fool of myself. I say give this to a girl who was like me, scared of growing up, alone and friendless, dreaming of other worlds. She may love it like I did and look back on it fondly. Or she may hate it, as I did too, though I still couldn't stop myself from wanting to be Tania.

I have read this book once and finished it, but since I want to go through the entire series, I decided to reread it. And wow, was it an experience. The beginning is a bit slow paced and hard to read which made me stop once or twice, but as one progresses with the story, it is really interesting. Just seeing how Tania gets to know Faerie and her deep divide between the Mortal Realm and the Faerie Realm is really interesting. I also liked a couple of the details they wrote, such as the rooms of the girls. There were sometimes though that it felt like a lot to take in, but overall, it was really worth it. I love the twists and turns (especially the plot twists) and I am looking forward to what the second book will bring.

This is a really great story about a girl named Anita. The day before her 16th birthday, she is in a boat accident with her boyfriend. Somehow, while she recovers, she meets a strange handsome man that pulls her into a different world. A world that is very familiar to her, but she doesn't know why it is familiar. It turns out that she is the lost princess Tania. As she tries to realize who she is, she wonders why she can't get back to the mortal world, and if she should go back at all.I really liked this book because it is complex and has a very relatable main character, even though most of what she goes through is impossible.
