Book Overview

The Real Boy meets The Girl Who Drank the Moon in this magical middle grade adventure, which takes readers deep into the world of the fae on one brave young girl's quest to save her brother.

Never trust a fae.

Lark Mairen knows this. In her village, the border between the fae and human worlds is as thin as a whisper, and fae trickery is nothing new.

But Lark's brother, Galin, has just disappeared into the fae realm while racing in the deadly Wild Hunt, and Lark's only lead is a mysterious fae boy called Rook.

To save her brother, she'll have to trust Rook--even if it takes her into the dangerous fae kingdom, where she'll untangle riddles, navigate labyrinths, and face the wicked king himself.

From the author of The Last Windwitch, Lark and the Wild Hunt is the perfect blend of classic folklore and new twists, with a protagonist who will show readers that failure is nothing to fear--and resilience, bravery, and friendship can overcome even the most daunting adversaries.

In this enchanting fantasy adventure, one girl's quest will decide the fate of two worlds.
