Shadow (Smith)

Stealing a magic chaos crystal probably wasn't the best move. Blowing stuff up with it isn't helping either.When Blasted Fairy Fizz Pop and her raggedy new friend Pan Green Dragon accidentally blast a hole in space and time, they trigger a thousand-year-old horror...Oops.Now a scarred, hooded stranger stalks them through time, while the crystal they need to protect wreaks havoc everywhere they go. As the past bleeds into the present, Fizz and Pan are up to their eyeballs in vampires, murdered muses, angry ex-wives, and ancient magic.What else could possibly go wrong? Nina Smith is a compulsive writer and artist obsessed with snakes, theatre, vampires, fairies, and mythology. She is often to be found lurking in a little old house in a small seaside city, drawing critters and writing stories. Somewhere, just on the other side of a veil you can't quite see, lies a bubble world whose fate is inextricably entwined with ours: a world where muses weave and inspire our art - while our art, in turn, takes hold in their world. They call our world Dream, and theirs Shadow.Ruled by a tyrant for three thousand years, Shadow is eyeballs deep in a a pitched war between good and evil. A war fought with blood, sweat and fairy dust - a war which is about to spill over into Dream, and change the course of Shadow's history forever.
