Claire in Fairyland

Revisado: 01-05-19

One must be careful of what they wish for, for the fae are always listening.
The story follows young Claire from a child to an adult as she stumbles and weaves her way through the land of Fairy, where one childhood wish to be a hero was capitalized on by the Seelie King. Rescuing a fairy is no easy task amidst the trials abounding at every turn. Nor when grappling with dream ventures, riddles and human error, while spans of time grow forgotten. Yet in a captivating tale of dreams, Brightley paints a novel where time and place is of no consequence, and every character in the Fairy realm is as foreign and captivating as they are dangerous. Impossible to ignore and quaint enough to feel transported to another world, the novel would be well loved by fans of Alice in Wonderland, or Inkheart.

The narrator, Corinne Shor has a lovely charm with character accents and genders, creating a unique voice for each that remained pleasantly consistent throughout the story. Though at time the narration is slightly jumbled or confusing, that is the nature of the story itself; Where dreams seldom act as reality.
In whole, it is a delightfully unique and colorful tale with a relatable main character and enough mystic, hidden lore to pique even the most tentative of curiosities within the realm of the Lord of Dreams.
