Believe

by K.S. Thompson

Phelan has a peaceful life and a little cottage in the woods to spend it in. When he is summoned to the Circle of Stones under the light of the full moon, his destiny is revealed. There was a time when Human and Faerie lived side by side. Now the gateway between the worlds is fading. If Humans cease to Believe in Faeries, Faeries will cease to be. He is chosen to undertake a tremendous task. The goal? To remind Humans to Believe before it is too late. The challenge? To evade those who would try to stop him, or worse. Offer him great power and their allegiance in exchange for turning his back on everything and everyone he’s ever known.

I was happily surprised when I read BELIEVE by KS THOMPSON. It reminded me of all the old wonderful fables and faerie tales I read as a girl. The world Thompson has created and the adventures Phelan goes on weave a story that I could not put down until the end. I ended up staying up until the wee hours of the morning reading!
This is a great story for young and old. Kids will love the adventure, adults will love the intricately woven fable-like quality of this story.

From the moment I started reading I was transported through the door that opened to the world of Believe. I was immediately captivated and enchanted by the characters. I couldn't leave until I had finished it.

This was a delightful story. I read it pretty much "cover" to "cover" in one sitting. I think it is best for children or those with an interest in the fairy world. Ms. Thompson created a magical world which was fun to visit. I wouldn't mind returning if she wrote a sequel. I did have a bit of an issue with the ending but that is for every reader to decide on their own. All in all a good read.
