Review: A Brief Prequel
Rating: 5 out of 5

This digital addition to the series is a brief one, set before the events ofThe Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making. Mallow is the central character here, and Valente provides more background in Mallow's rise to ruling Fairyland. Other familiar characters and creatures appear here, too - Valente's clever and wonderfully creative writing style remains consistent even in this abbreviated storyline. Truly, my only complaint is that I wish it had been longer! It really is just a short story and overall, not terribly vital to the overall series arc, but it is still fun to read and offers more details into the fascinating Fairyland. What a wonderful series! It's just a tantalizing enough taste to make me really excited to readThe Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There.
