Fans of supernatural romance and high school drama will enjoy the story of seventeen-year-old Sonia discovering her powers. Sonia is a Huldra, a Norse supernatural with the ability to make others (especially men) do her bidding. When she finally has a crush on a classmate, Anthony, she notices that he shares her interest in Norse mythology, and is strangely immune to her powers. But it’s not all smooth sailing between the two teenager supernaturals, it seems that Anthony’s mother and Sonia’s mother are deadly enemies in a battle over Huldra gifts and how best to use Huldra powers. Sonia and Anthony must figure out where their loyalties lie. Their adventure takes them through an invisible island, imprisonment, meeting Dark Elves and Light Elves, and many other challenges before resolution.

I liked that it was a twist on the typical vampire or werewolf storyline. I particularly enjoyed Sonia’s mom awkwardly explaining that one of the side effects of a Huldra’s coming-of-age can include being a bit oversexed, and that even kissing a boy will enslave him in her Huldra powers. Aww, poor Mom has to have the birds and the bees (and the ancient enslavement of men) talk with her teenage daughter!

Right up until the end this was great. However. I hated the ending. This just wasn't for me.

Actually right up until the end this was a page turner. Overall the book just wasn't for me and not to give anything away all I can say is I hated the ending. ( )

A really good first person narrative. There are shape shifters, time warpers, telepaths, telekinetics, and even a new and very interesting type if paranormal called Huldra. The story has lots of epic elements: burgeoning love, betrayal, battle (or the makings of) and loss of loved ones. This has the ingredients for an awesome series. The first book sets up the next quite nicely though it does lack action. ( )
