well paced and entertaining

Interesting dialogue and story line. There is some romance, but instead of a very physically romance, it is humorous and witty mixed in with a few kisses and a few glimpses of flesh (without graphic detail). The Ulrich likes what he sees and is obvious (vocal) about it much sooner in the story than Gossamyr. Gossamyr is interesting in that she is both able to take care of herself, yet she is out of place without being in Faery. Ulrich is much the opposite. They are drawn to travel together to Paris, and each with their own missions. The character interaction is very entertaining. The introduction into the next book of the series isn't annoyingly obvious (yeah!).

Lovely Fantasy - Poignant Love Story

Since childhood, Gossamyr de Wintershin a half faery, half mortal young woman knew that she would one day, in place of her father Shinn, rule over all of the fee in the Glamoursiege faery realm. Being only half faery, Gossamyr felt the snub from the true fee and also knew that she would only be accepted after she was wed to a fee of her father's choosing, and even then....she would never be more than half faery. She trained as a warrior and thus thirsted for a way to prove herself worthy of the impending honor. A dangerous succubus, the mysterious Red Lady resided outside the enchanted land in her lair in Paris. This succubus was enticing the fee to her then would drain them of their essence. Upon the fee's death she would capture the last of their glimmer which would then release the murderous revenants that found their way back to the Enchanted land to wreak havoc. Because Gossamyr didn't have the Glamour of the true faery, but the wit and the fighting ability of a warrior, she was able to convince her father to let her travel to the Otherside, to take on the Red Lady and thereby save `her people'. Back in the land of mortals, Gossamyr is impressed with the lure of the Otherside and has hooked up with a traveling companion who tempts her mortal half. He is a mysterious mortal - a soul Shepard - who has his own agenda as he seeks his own truths. In her quest to save her people, Gossamyr learns truths about herself, her lost lover, and her father that will inalterably alter her world forever. *** This was a very good story, though I admit finding it a tad difficult to get into. I thought more than once to put it aside as I was very confused by new terms and words used in the text, but as I became familiar with Hauf's writing style, it swiftly captured my interest as the action adventure and romance kicked in. One caveat that bears mentioning is that I had read a description on the book, stating a blending history and fantasy for which I didn't find that much in the way of historical detail. On the other hand, for the pure enjoyment of a beautifully presented fantasy tale with a memorable and likeable heroine; fascinating secondary characters; along with a poignant love story that will have you reaching for tissues throughout the last couple of chapters, this is surely the ticket! --- Marilyn, for (...)---

This is a Keeper

Gossamyr has it all. There is action, adventure, quest, friendship, and secrets galore. Gossamyr is on a quest to save the realm of Fae and defeat the evil succubus, the Red Lady. During her journey, she meets and travels with the one mortal who may be able to help her. Only thing is, he attracts danger on a daily basis and she ends up helping him. I will suggest this book to all my friends. Michele Hauf has written a wonderful tale which stands on it's own. I haven't read Serraphim yet but I am going to get a copy as soon as I can.
