Poison
By Chris Wooding
Poison has always been a willful, contrary girl, prone to being
argumentative and stubborn. So when her sister is snatched by the
mean-spirited faeries, she seeks out the Phaerie Lord to get her
back.
But finding him isn't easy, and the quest leads Poison into a murderous
world of intrigue, danger, and deadly storytelling. With only her
wits and her friends to aid her, Poison must survive the attentions
of the Phaerie Lord, rescue her sister, and thwart a plot that's
beyond anything she can imagine.
Excerpt:
Poison lost count of the days remarkably fast as she traveled with
Bram. It was only by the most intense calculation that she worked
out that it had been a week since Azalea had been taken by the Scarecrow.
A week that had passed at the plodding tempo of the grint's webbed
feet slapping in the mud, broken only occassionally by stops to
camp or when the cart became stuck and they had to lever it out.
She thought about Azalea, what she must be going through, but she
found that she could not even speculate. She knew nothing of the
ways of the phaeries. All the legends and stories of challengings
made no mention of what happened to the children that were taken.
