Keys and Curses (Shadow)

A pint-sized prophet, a delinquent false muse, a recovering drug addict, an enemy of the king - and enough fairies to drive any sensible muse around the bend. Flower only needs to do two things: get Muse Champion Nikifor into Freakin Fairy rehab before he is lost in his own madness, and then go find her missing king. She certainly has no intention of smuggling hundreds of tiny troublemaking fugitives across worlds, fraternising with sworn enemies of the king, or having a pitched battle with an evil she doesn't even believe in. But on the run in hostile territory with a price on their heads, Flower and Nikifor must both face the chilling truth behind Nikifor's madness - and the terror that grips all of Shadow. Keys and Curses is Book 2 in the Dark Comic Fantasy series Shadow, and continues the battle begun in Book 1, Bloody Fairies: a pitched war between good and evil fought with blood, sweat and fairy dust.
