When Henry Atherton helps Mr. Fogarty clean up around his house, he expects to find a mess and a cranky old man; what he doesn't expect to find is Pyrgus Malvae, crown prince of the Faerie realm, who has escaped the treacherous Faeries of the Night by traveling to the human world through a portal powered by trapped lightning. An egomaniacal demon prince, greedy glue factory owners Brimstone and Chalkhill, and the nefarious Lord Hairstreak, leader of the Faeries of the Night, all dream of ruling the Faerie realm and are out to kill Pyrgus. Enlisting the help of his sister, Holly Blue, and his new friend, Henry, Pyrgus must get back to the Faerie world alive before one of his many enemies gets to him instead. But how many portals are open, and can Pyrgus find the right one before it falls into the wrong hands? Conjuring scenes filled with vivid color, unforgettable detail, and fearless characters, author Herbie Brennan brings readers to the Faerie world, where nothing is ever what it seems and no one can be trusted.

God, it's been so long since I last read this but I adored the trilogy - and now I find it's not a trilogy! So it's time for another re-read.....
This is not a book about faeries and the author was kidding himself when he thought all of the elements blended together. This book is supposed to be some kind of fantasy/ science fiction novel, but at times to seems to go from a fantasy world in one paragraph to a science fiction/ modern world in the next paragraph. He did not blend the two elements together to make a cohesive world.Also, some of the events in the book are quite childish, in my opinion. For example, I thought it was childish
Where to begin...Ah! I have a question! IS THIS REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE A YOUNG ADULT STORY? It was more like something I would have read when I was 10. This book is classified as YA and the reviews hype it as, "The next Harry Potter!" I had high hopes for this book and they fell short; oh so short. I will not say it was poorly written grammatically or structurally. I would give it somewhere between a 3 and a 4 out of 5 in that respect. However, the story-line is a 2 out of 5 without a doubtin
This author/ books easy back before I had ever read anything fantasy related. I was immediately drawn into the genre. Ill always have a soft spot for this series of books. Excellent example of YA fantasy.Love it!
I really couldnt get into this book. Maybe Ill try again later. I get that its supposed to be YA/Middle grades, but it doesnt match. Parts of the book are extremely juvenile and other parts are quite mature.
