I received a free copy of the book from the authors for my honest opinion.Fi lives in a world that was devastated by nuclear war but the Fae came along and fixed it for them. They made it beautiful and livable again. The Earth was dying and the Fae brought it back to life. But there is one thing the humans didn't know when they Fae fixed the earth that they were going to have to pay with their life or their freedom. Humans were rounded up like cattle and taken to the home of the Fae. The Fae uses the humans as slaves or animals waiting on them hand and foot.Fi and her sixteen year old brother Eirnin are not a part of the Faes enslavement. They are trying to find a way to stop the Fae from taking humans as slaves. Fi is a young woman of nineteen with a great big heart who never wants to hurt anyone Fae or human but sometimes she is put in a situation where she has no choice.Fi's father was given some info on how to fight the Fae and take back their lives. So Fi's father and mother both leave their little community one day in search of this info. They are supposed to return in a couple of weeks but they never return and no one knows if they are alive or dead. With Fi's father gone and is not expected to come back leaves Fi in charge of her family as well as the leader of the whole group. Before Fi's father leaves he tells her to keep a close watch on her brother Eirnin because the Fae are coming for him.One day this new guy just shows up out of nowhere. Most or some of the people don't like this new guy Flint because he is a Fae. They don't take the time to get to know him and find out what kind of person or Fae he is they just dislike him because he is Fae. Fi and Eirnin both like Flint especially Fi who just happens to fall in love with him. But that is ok because Flint is in love with her as well. They make a good couple, they may be a lot of difference in their sizes but their hearts are probably about the same size though. Flint doesn't approve of what the Fae are doing to the humans and wants to help them.I feel bad for Fi when she finds out that her one and only real friend who also happens to be her cousin Sean has betrayed her. And she ends up having to do something she never thought she would have to do. But she has no choice in the matter the evidence is all there and it all points in one direction. Fi has so much on her for some so young. So many lives depend on her and the decision she is forced to make. But she deals with it quite well for someone of her age.age.I loved reading and following a long with each and every character in Uprising. They all seem so real as if you are standing right there beside them and you want to reach out and give Fi, Eirnin, Flint and Lumi all a helping hand. You want to stand by their side when the time comes to fight the Fae. You feel as if you are a part of their world or at the least wish you could be with them to just make things easier for them. I am going to make a prediction here I believe that Uprising is going to be the most talked about book of 2014. So hey maybe you should grab your copy today so you can jump on the band wagon. You don't want to miss out and not know what everyone is talking about now do you?
