He’s just a plain old teddy bear, but he will still kick your butt if you call him a “teddy bear”. Sonny is the newest member of the Janus guard and is Irish. Fenn was a Viking warrior before he became a changeling, so he has the “Grrr I’m a tough guy! DO. Also, both are pretty darn cute but in different ways.

All Janus are mortal changelings, snatched out of the mortal realm by faeries. Both are Janus, warriors appointed by the winter king Oberon to guard the gate between the worlds of fey and mortals. Fenn doesn't have as big a part in this book than in the later two books, but he is still an essential character. I loved the two characters Sonny and the Fennrys Wolf. It has a very original plot, although it did have its fair share of the usual corniness since the main character Kelley is the daughter of 2 faery monarchs. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this rather "fresh" story about faeries. Like many stories about those peculiar creatures that do not have the ability to lie, this story has been heavily influenced by Shakespeare's A Midsummer's Night Dream.

This book is about faeries, a topic that has been speculated, discussed, and written countless times. Can you think of anything that is such a mix of wonder and strangeness that the two components cannot be distinguished? In this book, both faeries and love are "wondrous strange". I love the title of this book, which also happens to be the title of the trilogy.
