I stayed up till midnight reading." "Great book for adults and kids! Strong female characters going on an exciting adventure. If you're a fan of Narnia or The Hobbit, you'll enjoy this!" "I don't like fantasy fiction that much, however, I decided to give this book a try. I was amazed at how much I loved this story! It's captivating.!

You wont want to put it down!"From the cover - "When sisters Chevu and Nez are given the chance to travel into unknown lands by Pan the wood sprite and Puck the hobgoblin, they jump at the opportunity. A short trip abroad in the mysterious, ancient forests to the north is just the sort of adventure they can't pass up. But soon, their leisurely walking tour leads them into a wilderness more treacherous than any guide could have guessed, right into the snare of a tyrant with an expanding kingdom and a thirst for domination.With a menacing chuckle and a maniacal grin, Ol' King Koel is bent on total control over every gnome and leprechaun in the realm. From his throne he has been plotting and pulling strings, slowly destroying all the ancient civilizations that surround his luxuriant palace. And now his eye has turned in a new direction, and he thinks these humans he captured might be just the right tool. Two small girls should make the perfect bate to flush out the greatest terror he has ever conspired against.It will take all of the girls' combined strength and wit, along with a good deal of luck, if they are ever to escape the crafty machinations of this dark sorcerer who plans to bring all the magical kingdoms in the world under his own rule. With help from new-found friends and unsuspected allies, they might just find a way to turn the tables on the villian. They could even find a way to get back home."
