The Wyrde, the protection shield against the Fae entering your world at first sight of the full moon, is now dead. There is no longer a way to keep the monsters, imaginary creatures, ones thought to be those of a child's fairytale or imagination from taunting, kidnapping, mating with, and hunting you. To be the hunted and not the hunter, what would you do? Run, hide, fight? Come join some of your favorite characters from Book One Fae - The Wild Hunt as they reappear for an adventure of a lifetime in Fae - The Realm of Twilight.

Kloss, shipmaster of the Bjormen from Hesk, who just raided King Pieter's land of Anlan or "The Farmed Lands", is not only battling an enemy of the land, but also one of the imagination, "The Fae" - all while his wife Ylsriss is taken deep into the Realm of Twilight (land of the Fae), with their son. In Anlan, Selena, Devin, and Obair are forced into their own actions against the Bjornmen when King Pieter refuses to aid them in any way. While soldiers, Bjornmen, nobles, and duchesses are wreaking havoc on the home front, Devin and Obair flee the safety of Widdengate and head for answers concerning the Fae. Little did they know just how those answers they were seeking would find them.

Fae - The Realm of Twilight by Graham Austin-King is a riveting tale introducing readers to the Fae and their mystical unknown world; Bjornmen invaders with their elegant and tactical way of fighting; Anlan soldiers and commoners and their way of life; royals or nobles and their plans and conspiracies to take back what is theirs; druids, magic, different realms, and a unique spin on religion. Graham Austin-King takes storytelling to the next level with his impeccable character development, plot, dialog, and scene transitions within each chapter. The entire story, down to emotions of characters during particular scenes, is so skilfully and creatively developed that a reader can actually feel the anxieties, fears, and desperation as if they were part of the book themselves. This book could be read by itself. However, to gain full knowledge of the characters and their livelihood and environment, it is best to read Book One, Fae - The Wild Hunt beforehand. Be warned; this book is not a child's fairy tale, but rather quite the opposite.
