Have you ever played a computer simulated, role playing game for a reeeeally long time and then felt like you have actually lived inside the game? well, that's what happened to Jennet in Feyland, the mystical realm in the top-secret software her father's company is working on.
Jennet snuck into her dads high-tech simulation room to try out the beta version for the game - and after facing and losing to the Big Boss in the questing game, none other than the Queen of the Dark Realm, she begins to re...more

This book has a three and a half for me because the plot and most of the characters were great it was just Jennet that let it down. I felt that she played the damsel in distress one time too many.

Feyland, unsurprisingly, had a very fairy tale theme, being based on a ballad- which worked incredibly well in my opinion. So in theory the heroic knight was a necessary plot element, and Tam himself was a deep and interesting character. If Jennet had been a knight herself or some sort of weapon wieldin...more

I wanted to read this book, because it sounded like an original story. It certainly was an original story and I really enjoyed it. The story really is the best thing about this book.

The story is really original and I liked how the game world en real world interacted. I am a gamer myself and I liked reading a book about it like this. The story is at first a bit confusing, because it is in the future and the author has made up a few words he...more

* Plot: Jennet's father is the head of a computer game development company and Jennet gets to play the beta version of a new extremely immersive game called Feyland. Only thing is, Feyland is a gateway into the realm of the Fae, so what happens in Feyland does NOT stay in Feyland. She loses to the final boss, the Dark Queen, and the old crow takes some of her essence. Jennet needs another gamer in the real world who can defeat her to get it back, or Jennet will die. So, Jennet recruits a kid nam...more

Feyland is based on "The Ballad of Tam Lin," which sounded vaguely famliar to me but I had never actually heard. It was a really cool mix of scifi and fairy tale, which sounds like a weird combination but actually worked and was explained really well.

Jennet and Tam's relationship had a definite princess-and-the-pauper feel to it, which is part of the reason this story had a lot of the qualities of a fairy tale. I thought Tam and Jennet each had well-written family issues, though Tam's were wrapp...more

3.5 stars. This story was well written and the author did a great job at maintaining tension right up till the end. The characters felt realistic and the premise was different from most YAs right now (although an oldie like me would be reminded of the Tron movie way back when). I enjoyed this story and recommend it to readers who like gaming and fantasy/fairy books.

This is something for all ages. I could not put it down once I started reading. The story's main characters Jennet and Tam are great. When it comes to mixing Fae lore and video games Anthea Sharp has it down pat!

This book is good for readers that prefer mystical types of stories that have fairies, elves etc. The beginning starts off very intriguing an suspenseful. I was glued to he book after the 1st chapter because I couldn't wait to see what would happen to the main character. Its an enjoyable book based on ballads and mythical lore. :)

In FEYLAND, we are dropped into the drama from the very beginning. It's like... 'Here's the problem, let's go'. It felt a bit abrupt. I had no time to get to know Jenet, the main character until much later in the story, so I had a hard time connecting. I'm not a gamer, but it was interesting to learn some tech-lingo and seeing what it would be like to play. So even though the story structure was a little different for me, I was definitely fascinated by the realm of Feyland.

Jennet had lost to the Dark Queen and was desperate for Tam's help by the time she found out he was a gamer. It seemed she only talked to Tam because she wanted/needed something from him. We find out a little about her past, but it wasn't really enough for me to like her. I really felt more of a connection with Tam. He had a really rough life and had to take on a lot of responsibility that he shouldn't have had to. Tam's mother was absent most of the time, and his kid brother (affectionately referred to as 'the Bug”) had a blood disorder that made him hard to handle. But Tam took care of his family.

The romance was predictable, but at least there was NO LOVE TRIANGLE! I'm still a sucker for the whole 'girl falls for the guy from the wrong side of the tracks' angle. Jenet's wealth was definitely an obstacle for Tam to deal with, but in the end, it didn't matter at all. Going in-game with Jennet and Tam really sucked me in! The visual description was great, and I'd love to really SEE it. Tam and Jennet had to complete tasks to be taken to the inner courts of Feyland to join in a final, epic battle with the Dark Queen.

I had no idea there was any legend about Tam Lin until I looked at a review that mentioned it. I did a little research, and I really liked how Sharp integrated that into her story. It was very modern, and I think that it will do very well in the YA genre, as it has both the pull of the fey and gaming world. With my only 'complaint' being that I didn't connect with the characters much, I think you should definitely check this one out if it sounds interesting to you. (less)

This book puts a whole new interesting twist on paranormal! It takes the age-old folklore of the Fae and wraps it all into a distant futuristic gamer setting. This premise makes for a very intriguing story! The characters have a very realistic type of life, (i.e. rich kid, poor kid) which also makes them easy to relate to. Their background is very well written, giving the reader a good look into why they are how they are. The secondary characters were very good, as well, adding more depth to Tam...more

I was not compensated for the review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.

In a quasi-modernistic world with hints of a post-apocalyptic society we meet Jennet Carter; the daughter of a director for a company that is creating a new virtual reality game, Feyland. Due to her unfettered access to the game in its beta format, Jennet discovered that the virtual land of the faeries is seeking to encroach on her real world, and that her loss of the game to the Dark Queen also means that she must find a knight to save her soul.

Jennet is a new student at the school, one of the few from the corporation. She meets Tam Lin, the best sim gamer in the school, and seeks to enlist his help. What follows is a roller coaster ride that takes us through Jennet’s need to find a solution, and Tam’s need to find stability and safety for himself and his little brother, with or without his mother’s presence.

This was an interesting concept, invoking a warning about not tampering with worlds you are unfamiliar with. Consequences abound throughout, and while the action is not only in fighting skills, the reason and logic needed by the pair to ultimately succeed in the quest to keep the door between the faerie world and the mortal world closed is truly the key to their success or failure. Where the stories from which the worlds were created come only from honest to goodness paper books, rare and no longer produced, the willingness of both characters to both use and appreciate the paper form is notable.

It was a whole different approach to a paranormal faerie story: cleanly incorporating gaming technology and skill woven with lore and old tales to neatly present a virtual reality that is both tangible and menacing, even as it is described with beauty and wonder. While I don’t play games at all, this will appeal to those who are dabbling with the virtual reality worlds, as well as the online character driven games. It is, at the very edges a touch of romance in the ‘getting to know you’ stages that is so often found in teens, with a realization from both Jennet and Tam that teamwork and real friendship work hand in hand with sacrifice and trust. A truly enjoyable work, one that I hope takes us on many other adventures with this pair as they grow.

I did, however, want to know more about the HOW the society got where it was, and why the "corporation" was held in such esteem or revulsion depending on the perspective of the viewer. I'm hoping that further stories that include Jennet and Tam explain some background that was missing.

The main setting of this novel is the game world. After I read it, I did some research and also found that this book is based off of a Scottish Ballad, Tam Linn. From what I could gather, she did a very good job weaving the two together. I loved this book, and was able to easily finish it in a couple of days. This book was fantastic and exceeded my expectations.

Reasons to Read:

1.The Characters-
The two main characters in this book, Tam and Jennet, are very unique characters. I found that I really got to know the two of them very well. Jennet wasn't just some rich spoiled girl. I mean, sure she was rich, but she was also kind of lonely. She didn't really see her dad a lot and her world was in the game, Feyland. She had retreated so much into the game that she hardly had friends in the real world. And then there was Tam. As soon as he entered the stage I fell in love with him as a character. He went through a tough life, living in a rough neighbourhood, having to take care of his brother. His mom was hadly ever there; she would sometimes disappear for months on end. And then when the two met.... We'll get to that later. The rest of the characters such as Tam's brother, and his friend Marny. They added a bit more to the overall atmosphere of the book. The extra, flat characters weren't even tedious at all.

2.The Wrting-
The writing was really well done in this book. All the events that happened seem to flow so naturally; nothing seemed forced. The dialogue between the characters was real, and some parts were pretty funny too. Although the premise makes the novel sound like it would be really lame and cheesy, it wasn't at all. My favourite part is when we see the events of the Tam Linn ballad take place. The writing there is beautiful. Overall, Sharp is a very talented writer.

3.The Romance-
As soon as Tam and Jennet met, I could feel the chemistry between them. It was right there, but not in a rub-it-in-your-face kind of way. The great part about the romance in this book is that, unlike many other books, they don't start making out in corners after page 50. (Minor spoiler: They actually don't even kiss until the end.) I think that the way Sharp went about writing the romance was nice and slow. Tam and Jennet created an excellent friendship first. The friendsihp made an easy transition to something more. It was refreshing to see such a healthy relationship form. You will not be disappointed with this plot in the novel.

The one thing that would've been useful in this book would be some sort of indication that this novel took place in the future. I was reading it, and getting so confused bescause I thought this took place in our time. But just to clarify, it does not. I think that even non-gamers will like this book, but gamers will appreciate this book even more. This book is now one of my favourites and I wouldn't mind going through it again.

So when I read the premise of this book I just had to get my greedy hands on it. Well I can say I was NOT disappointed!

The story starts with Jennet who is such an interesting character, her father works in the gaming industry and is responsible for the creation of the best virtual reality gaming system ever created. He brings home the prototype and Jennet of course gets to play. She discovers the game Feyland and starts playing only to find out that it isn’t just a game.

Her father and the company move to a new town and Jennet meets Tam. Tam is poor, and I do mean poor and lives with his mother and his younger brother. Together they go into Feyland to retrieve her life force which the evil queen has stolen.

Let me tell you, the characters in this book are tremendous. I absolutely fell in love with Bug even though he’s a minor character. And Tam and Jennet are well written, and oh so easy to like. These characters are written so well that you almost feel like you know them in real life. Tam is a young man who has had an extremely hard life. His mother disappears at times and he’s left to care for his younger brother who has health issues.

The Author has not only captured the characters but her description of the time in game is intense and I as a gamer can relate to how time flies by so quickly while playing. I loved the scenes and the characters both in and out of the game. Puck the loveable and mischievous fey, you’ll have to read the book for more information because I hate spoilers and I just know you’ll love the characters as much as I did.

What I will say is GO OUT AND BUY THIS INCREDIBLE BOOK! Well written, enjoyable and it will suck you in. As I said the line between games and reality is a very fine one to begin with and this author has blurred that line so much that I wonder now if my games aren’t more real than real life.

While I have absolutely no experience playing this type of video game; I have watched enough of my son playing quest games to appreciate the plot and understand the world of Feyland. I love the way in which Sharp weaves fairy folklore and Scottish ballads into this tale.

The protagonist is Jennet Carter and her father’s employer, VirtuMax, designs gaming systems that enable the player to experience first person playing through his or her avatar. Jennet’s Dad brings home two systems that they play together. When the creator of the software program dies while playing the game; Jennet’s Dad forbids her to play. Jennet a typical teenager begins playing secretly. She moves through Feyland completing quests and fighting bosses. She reaches the final level and does battle with the Queen. Something goes terribly wrong and the Queen steals Jennet’s essence. She becomes ill in real life and must find a knight to win back what she has lost. Tam Linn is a guy with problems. He lives in the slums, has a mother who is mentally ill and a brother that will make anyone crazy. He has built his own gaming system and works for spare parts and free games. In the game world he is confident and brave. In the real world, he has few friends and heavy burdens. He may be the only one who can save Jennet.

The tale that unfolds is beautifully written and moves at a steady pace. The romance between Jennet and Tam is sweet. I loved the characters in Feyland and the world-building there. The way in which Sharp blurs the lines between this world and Feyland was cool. When I close my eyes I can almost see the characters and creatures that dwell there.

I highly recommend Feyland to fans of fantasy, video games, quests and romances. This is the first in a series or trilogy. The next book entitled Feyland: The Bright Court will be published in the spring of 2012. This novel is currently available in digital and paper formats. I will be watching for more from this author.
I want to thank the author for providing me this ARC in exchange for my unbiased review. (less)
