I'm very late to the party on this series, but good things come to those who wait. There seems to be some disagreement about whether this is supposed to be a series for kids or not, but whatever; it's fun either way. This is the type of book where you see the movie it would make in your head, and try to cast each character as you encounter them (the actual movie is on hold, apparently). Not all that deep, but what do you expect from a "Die Hard with faries" story.
