Heather Fawcett

The third instalment in the enchanting light academia Emily Wilde books, about a curmudgeonly scholar of folklore and the fae prince she loves, from Sunday Times bestselling author Heather Fawcett.

Emily Wilde has spent her life studying faeries. A renowned dryadologist, she has documented hundreds of species of Folk in her Encyclopaedia of Faeries. Now she is about to embark on her most dangerous academic project yet: studying the inner workings of a faerie realm—as its queen. Along with her former academic rival—now fiancé—the dashing and mercurial Wendell Bambleby, Emily is immediately thrust into the deadly intrigues of Faerie as the two of them seize the throne of Wendell’s long-lost kingdom, which Emily finds a beautiful nightmare filled with scholarly treasures. Emily has been obsessed with faerie stories her entire life, but at first she feels as ill-suited to Faerie as she did to the mortal world: How can an unassuming scholar such as herself pass for a queen? Yet there is little time to settle in, for Wendell’s murderous stepmother has placed a deadly curse upon the land before vanishing without a trace. It will take all of Wendell’s magic—and Emily’s knowledge of stories—to unravel the mystery before they lose everything they hold dear. Book Three of the Emily Wilde Series

They're staying at Granddaddy's seaside property for the summer, which includes the mysterious Fairy Islands: Fairy, Little Fairy, and Ghost. The people in Misty Cove call them "in-between places," and say they're full of magic--a magic that gets inside you. But ten-year-old Bee Snolly doesn't believe in magic--she just wants to help her ill Granddaddy. And if she and her sisters can unravel the mystery of the Fairy Islands in time, they may discover a long-buried secret that could help them all.

A perfect summer read about whale watching and friendship both lost and found, from the author of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries When Fern hears about a photo contest with a big cash award, she decides she'll enter and win After all, photography is her passion (and was an interest she shared with her dad, who has recently died). She knows she can take a prize-worthy photo of a whale during one of the whale-watching tours her mom runs. But her neighbor (and nemesis), Jasper, is also planning to enter the contest. It's another frustration for Fern while she's already coping with the worry that her best friend, Ivy, might not want to spend time with her anymore. She's hoping to use the prize money to buy something that will attract Ivy's interest. This summer story has everything: the trials and pleasures of friendship, a rousing feud and a touch of adventure, a beautiful exploration of healing after grief, a very moving finale, and a whole lot of whale-watching fascination.

Emily Wilde är en framstående forskare som precis färdigställt världens första encyklopedi över älviska väsen. Under arbetets gång fick hon inte bara veta sanningen om ett hemlighetsfullt älvfolk, hon råkade även avslöja kollegan och före detta konkurrenten Wendell Bamblebys stora hemlighet. Bambleby är nämligen inte bara hopplöst charmig på gränsen till odräglig han är en älvkung i exil. Och han vill att Emily ska bli hans drottning. Men trots att Emilys känslor för Bambleby numera är av det varmare slaget så är hon inte redo att tacka ja till hans frieri. Dessutom har hon ett nytt forskningsprojekt på gång, den här gången är det en atlas över älvornas riken. Snart skakas dock det relativa lugnet i Cambridge i grunden när Bamblebys fiender bestämmer sig för att göra sig av med honom en gång för alla. Tillsammans måste Emily och Bambleby göra allt de kan för att hitta vägen tillbaka till hans rike innan det är för sent. Emily Wildes atlas över älvornas riken är den andra delen i serien om Emily Wilde.

Emily Wilde har vigt sitt liv och sin karriär åt att förstå och kartlägga älviska väsen runt om i världen och blivit en av de främsta experterna vid universitetet i Cambridge. När det gäller att hantera andra människor är hon däremot inte särskilt framgångsrik ett visst mått av vresighet gör inte heller saken lättare. Dessutom föredrar hon att umgås med sina böcker och sin hund. Så när Emily anländer till den vindpinade lilla byn Hrafnsvik på det kalla och ogästvänliga Ljosland är det inte för att bli vän med den kärva lokalbefolkningen, utan för att bedriva forskning kring ett hemlighetsfullt älvfolk som gäckat forskarna i många år. En vetenskaplig artikel i ämnet skulle inte bara vara en fjäder i Emilys akademiska hatt utan även den sista pusselbiten till den encyklopedi som hon arbetat med under flera års tid. När Emilys kollega, den hopplöst pratsamme och i de flestas ögon charmerande Wendell Bambleby, till hennes förtret plötsligt bjuder in sig själv till forskningsexpeditionen tar resan dock en ny vändning. För vem är egentligen Wendell och vad är han ute efter? Emily inser snart att hon har mer än ett mysterium att tampas med. Om hon ska hitta gåtans lösning innan det är för sent kommer hon tvingas göra något hon aldrig gjort förut: Lyssna till sitt hjärta. Emily Wildes encyklopedi över älvornas liv är första delen i den hyllade och bästsäljande serien om Emily Wilde." Förtrollande läsning!" Femina
