Mary Matthews is a sweet little autistic girl living a very ordinary life until the fish girl appeared to her one night in her bedroom. The bizarre creature’s prophecies that Mary alone can save the fish girl’s world terrifies her.
The following day, Mary is on a fieldtrip with her special needs class when a voice beckons to her from an alley. Wandering away from her classmates, she enters into a place where the worlds bridge, realities become blurred, and the most terrifying of nightmares live to wreak havoc on those unfortunate enough to enter.
Mary holds within her hands the fate of a world.
At only five years old, how can she hope to survive in Wraethworld?

There's a sense of childlike wonder and fear in this adventure through a surreal dreamscape, which hooks you in and keeps you reading.

writing style - quirky, dark, depressing, and twisted
story - much like being in an odd dream that you know you should never tell anyone about
characters - face value and flimsy - no desire to be close to them and hard to want to tag along

It gets you hooked to see what happens to Mary. But, the ending is less than satisfactory. I don't recommend it.

It was an odd read and I might not be sure why I enjoyed it. It was probably more on the way it was told and less the actual story itself.
