The Wood Queen<\/a> Booktalk:<\/strong> To keep her best friend, Navin, from being killed at the hands of vicious wood elves, Donna Underwood stole the elixir of life. Now she\u2019s facing an alchemist tribunal while her mother lies dying, succumbing to the elven curse that shattered her mind. In desperation, Donna seeks an audience with Aliette, the fierce and manipulative Wood Queen, who offers a deal: if Donna can use her strange and burgeoning powers to help the wood elves, Aliette will free her mother from the curse. Along with Navin and Xan, the half-fey guy she\u2019s falling for, Donna struggles to unlock the secrets of her iron tattoos in time to save her mother\u2019s life. But some secrets are better left untold.<\/p>\n Snippet:<\/strong> And the crows; so many of them. A murder of crows? Circling around and around in an indigo sky, shedding only feathers that look like black petals.
