YA
Thirteen-year-old Ali (a reincarnated fairy queen) works with human and elemental allies to protect their coexisting worlds. New characters, hidden identities, and science fiction elements (a Borg-like "Entity" bent on saving Earth from self-destruction by means of enslavement) keep the plot fresh but scattered. Revelations about the genesis and motivations of the villains bring depth to the two previous books about Ali.
