Winter Shadows: The Dark Christmas
Christmas will never be the same again...
Eira, an Elven warrior with a grudge against humans, must come to terms with her dark past as she reluctantly works with a human boy who may be the key to stopping a conspiracy that could destroy the North Pole and the entire world - the Winter Shadows trilogy twists the classic tales of Christmas into a dark Modern Fantasy.
For almost two thousand years, the world has been protected by a secret order. Saint Nicolas and his followers of the Northern Realm have quietly fought and given their lives from the shadows to protect the innocents from unspeakable nightmares. History only holds small shreds of the complete truths of their efforts and near-averted calamities. But now everything has changed.
Saint Nicolas is gone.
Eira, a peerless Elven warrior and a loner by nature, is the only survivor of an attack on her battalion after a reconnaissance mission goes horribly wrong. Amidst unrest in the Northern Realm, she is dispatched to the human world to locate Nic, a young man who may be the key to unraveling the causes behind the disappearances of Saint Nicolas and her fellow Elves. Eira is uneasy about working with a human, and Nic is reluctant to leave his mother behind as they face foreclosure and an uncertain future. As the body count rises back in the North and as they discover that they are being followed, Eira and Nic must come to terms with who they are and what matters most.

Beautiful and imaginative. I gave it a 4 though cause i thought the main character never made too much of an impact although it may be his character uraveling into the next volume. Now his co star was awesome and i totally related to her more. Infact i wish i was her. Anyway, the book had a feel of Godzilla and The Never Ending Story. The magic of a world within a world just left me turning the page with pauses to broaden my mind for new adventures and discriptive ambience of an unknown beauty.
