The Faeland Legends #1
NeverSeen
A young fairy, a deadly secret, and an elusive agency watching everything and everyone.
How would you deal with everyday existence knowing that your sisters are telekinetic geniuses, your nightmares are shadows of a future plagued by death and destruction, and that half-completed astronomy assignment is due in about 20 minutes?
It’s no wonder that Emmaline O’Meern hardly sleeps. Every day with a normal life is hard enough, but trying to forget nightly terrors of raging fires and thousands of her people dying have made having a normal life practically impossible. With the finale of her school career approaching, Emmaline struggles to remain a not-so-average teen fairy without letting slip of her true, potentially destructive nature.
As the next stage of her life begins and societal expectations clash with her inquisitive nature, Emmaline wrestles with who, and what, she really is. Will her closest friends, Tracer, Gator, and Sam, abandon her when she needs them most? Will she be able to protect her family when she doesn’t know if they’re trustworthy? And above all, will the horrific, recurrent vision of the greatest home-tree in the valley, Skyglass Temple, exploding in flames with the majority of the city’s inhabitants inside, come to pass as Emmaline so desperately fears?
An extraordinary adventure exploring the reaches of trust, friendship, and faith, NeverSeen is sure to sweep you off your feet and send you soaring through a world that isn’t so different from our own.
NeverSeen is the first installment of the Faeland Legends series.

Amazing debut!
Very different than any book that I have read before.. The story held my attention and I had to read it in one setting. It did end in a cliffhanger, so I am ready to read what comes next, soon please!?!

I almost gave up on this book countless times. I thought about making a shelf called "I don't like it and don't want to finish it." But I persevered and can truthfully add it to my completed books. But it was a struggle. It was not until I finished the book that I remembered why I had chosen to read it to begin with. It has been sitting on my kindle forever. The author is a teenage girl from Boise, Id, which is where I live, so I am sure I read a review in the local paper and decided to give it a try. The young lady has some strengths to build on, but the book was disjointed and somewhat silly. I hope she keeps working at her craft.

My first read of a story from Taylor Hunter and I genuinely just saw that it was about faeries and was like I want to read this.
The intro to this story was a bit hard to get into with some of it being visions which I didn't realise till I'd finished reading it. There are several points of view as well so it was useful seeing what was happening elsewhere at the same time.
It was a pretty fun intro to this world, it starts off with your general teenage type school drama antics and evolves into something more hair-raising with a distinct Big Brother is watching you vibe.
I have jumped immediately into reading book 2 Flamerunner as NeverSeen ended so spectacularly

Like I said, Wow, this was a cool story. I just started reading and before I knew it I was sixty pages in. This is a sign of a fantastic book to me. I just kept on reading. Fantastic, strong female character. Would love to see if I could get a handle on her powers, for me of course, not her! Fantastic story. I hope you give it a try, you don't want to miss this book.

Have to admit that when I saw the cover I was less interested. Not exactly a book that I would normally be reaching for. But what a story! There is absolutely nothing predictable in this book! Just when you think you've got Emeline figured out she continues to surprise you! Great for children young teens and even adults!

Emmaline experiences night terrors where she witnesses terrible events. Upon turning fifteen, Emmaline discovers unique abilities, shared by her sisters. This story is terrifying and funny, with plenty of action, ending with a cliffhanger. Very highly recommended.

Very good! On the edge of your seat good. I felt like I could relate with the characters; the book was so hard to put down. I am looking forward to reading more books by Taylor Hunter.
I was given this book in exchange for my honest review and very honestly it was very good.

Confused and disjointed. the fairy aspect is an afterthought and the book could have been made without it. couldn't finish.

Though written by a young author (a teen), the story engages you immediately and briskly carries you through to the mindboggling end. If you like stories that involve fairies, this book is for you. If you like movies like Avatar, this book is for you. And especially if you're curious how those two themes might mashup, then this book is for you.
