Story
Four years have passed since a fairy swarm released the voice of prophecy in Nell Brennan. In that painful moment, a skilled warrior became a reluctant leader and defender of Aluvia's magic. Now a new enemy threatens their still-fragile lands, one Nell feels powerless to stop even with help from the voice within her. A mysterious dark alchemist from the Ice-Locked Lands is rising to power on the strength of his sword arm and an ice-breathing dragon obedient to his command.

When Phoebe finds out a terrible sea creature is awakening that preys upon the peace-loving merfolk, she becomes determined to help them, even though it means going with Tristan and Mina to their home deep in the sea. Beneath the waves, Phoebe learns she's more like her sister than she realized.

Publisher's Summary
Forget cute fairies in pretty dresses. In the world of Aluvia, most fairies are more like irritable, moody insects, and almost everyone views the fairy keeper mark as a gift. But not 14-year-old Sierra. She hates being a fairy keeper, but the birthmark is right there on the back of her neck. It shows everyone she was born with the natural ability to attract and even control the tiny fairies whose nectar is amazingly powerful.
Fairy nectar can heal people, but it is also a key ingredient in synthesizing Flight, an illegal elixir that produces hallucinations. She's forced to care for a whole hive of the bee-like beasties by her Flight-dealing, dark alchemist father.
Then one day, Sierra discovers the fairies of her hatch are mysteriously dead. The fairy queen is missing. Her father's Flight operation is halted, and he plans to make up for the lost income by trading her little sister to be an elixir runner for another dark alchemist, a dangerous thug. Desperate to protect her sister, Sierra convinces her father she can retrieve the lost queen.
The problem? Sierra's queen wasn't the only queen to disappear. They're all gone, and getting them back will be deadly dangerous.

Excellent
What made the experience of listening to Fairy Keeper the most enjoyable?
The narrator was fantastic. I enjoyed the system and culture of magic presented here, which I found to be interesting and original.
What other book might you compare Fairy Keeper to and why?
Elements of the story, specifically the societal treatment of children, struck me as similar to the sociology of The Hunger Games, minus the political backdrop. In some ways, that aspect was handled better in this book.
Which character – as performed by Rebecca Gibel – was your favorite?
Nell. But really, the narrator did a wonderful job with the whole cast, both male and female.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending, which I will not reveal here.
Any additional comments?
Solid MG debut novel, using endangered fairies as an allegory for colony collapse syndrome and broader environmentalist issues, as well as touching on addiction and forced labor. Heady stuff for young readers, but it is handled deftly, in a way that leaves a lot of room for discussion and teaching moments. I loved the premise of this book, as well as the world, which is presented as something of a run-down high fantasy setting. The story follows a more-or-less traditional quest arc, with some nice twists and turns, and a few surprises. I greatly enjoyed listening to this, and look forward to the rest of the series.
