The Slivers of Avalon: The Abandoned Edge
Seventeen-year-old Alexis has visionary dreams that take her to Avalon, the realm of faeries.
She discovers this other world is real, and it is where she was created. Switched at birth, Alexis is a changeling, simply disguised well to fit in with humans. Through a vision, she learns of her derailed heritage and about the day she was born, when the worst kind of evil killed her mother.
This evil is now after Alexis, and a prophecy insists she is the only one who can stop it. As she plans the creature's demise, it spends its time terrorizing both humans and faeries. To complicate matters, Alexis falls dangerously in love with a depraved faery. One who is close to the evil she is trying to stop. She feels connected to both worlds, and also to both dark and light. Struggling with who she is while deciding how to fulfill the prophetic claims, Alexis must choose a sacrifice to stop this abomination -- be it human, fae ... or even herself.

About the author
Eden Tyler
3 books21 followersEden Tyler studied English Literature and Psychology at Purdue University and still resides in the Midwest where she grew up, in her comfortable home with her great little family.
Still a reader, she spends a lot of time researching her main obsession—faeries. The Abandoned Edge of Avalon is not only an urban fantasy, but also a form of Mythic Fiction in that it draws directly from Celtic mythology. Eden created her own world from the facts she learned.
Other than believing faeries do come into her house and hide things from her and mess around just for fun, she maintains a fairly simple life. It consists mostly of writing, reading, and watching movies. Eden adores almost all candy and loves the colors pink and blue.

Muahaha, I loves a good faerie story, and I really enjoyed this one! I liked both the plot and characters, especially the main protagonist! I loved it whenever she'd talk to herself, as her inner enthusiasm and freak outs always made me laugh out loud. It was even funnier when Salone could read her crazy thoughts.
There's some strong language and sex scenes in this story... It would be suitable for more mature readers to enjoy. :)
