Troll markets, faerie rings, and the lure of the Unseelie Court - Holly Black's "Modern Faerie Tales" plunges readers into a beguiling world where the fae are very real, and very dangerous. When teenage Kaye gets tangled up with the fae, she must navigate a treacherous maze of ancient bargains and the ever-shifting whims of the Faerie Queen. With her own mortality at stake, Kaye must be as cunning as the fae themselves to survive their cruel games. But the price of victory may be more than she's willing to pay.
