    Gr 8 Up— In this sequel to Tithe: A Modern Faerie Tale (S & S, 2002), the coronation of Kaye's boyfriend, Roiben, as King of the Unseelie Court seems to signal an end to their relationship. Silarial, Queen of the rival Seelie Court, persists in warring against Roiben and his folk, Kaye's friend Cornelius is cursed by a faery, and Kaye tells her mom that she's really a pixie changeling and that the woman's human daughter has been living in Faerie since babyhood. All in all, things are not going well in either Faerie or Ironside—what faeries call the human realm, in this case New York City and New Jersey—although, on the positive side, Corny does find love with Luis, a human with the ability to cast off faerie curses. Essential for fans of Tithe , this tale of tough yet romantic punks and misfits, both human and faerie, is told in an authentic street voice. It will appeal to readers who like their magic served with a layer of urban grit.—Eva Mitnick, Los Angeles Public Library
