'In less than a day I had been harassed, enchanted, shouted at, cried on, and clawed. I'd been cold, scared, dirty, exhausted, hungry, and miserable. And up until now, I'd been mildly impressed with my ability to cope.' A gripping fantasy set on the shifting boundary between what is real and what is legend. Can Ellie discover a power she never knew she possessed? At her boarding school in New Zealand, Ellie Spencer is like any ordinary teen: she hangs out with her best friend, Kevin; obsesses over her crush on a mysterious boy; and her biggest worry is her essay deadline. Until everything changes... In the foggy woods near the school, something ancient and deadly is waiting.

The Book was putting me to sleep and it seem to hold on to things that are irrelevant.

I loved this book! Gripping storyline, great characters and really well-described setting (so familiar to all of us who live in Christchurch, and especially if you've spent any time in Riccarton/Deans Bush/university areas). I also love the way that Maori myth and legend are so seamlessly incorporated into the modern setting and story. A top read of 2010 for me!
