The Forgotten Ones: Book 1 (The Danaan Trilogy) (English Edition) Formato Kindle
Allison's plan is to go to grad school so she can get a good job and take care of her schizophrenic mother. She has carefully closed herself off from everything else, including a relationship with Ethan, who she's been in love with for as long as she can remember.
What is definitely not part of the plan is the return of her long-lost father, who claims he can bring Allison's mother back from the dark place her mind has gone. Allison doesn't trust her father, so why would she believe his fairy tale about a long forgotten Irish people, the Tuatha de Danaan? But truths have a way of revealing themselves. Secrets will eventually surface. And Allison must learn to set aside her plan and work with her father if there is even a small chance it could restore her mother's sanity.

Well, let me start by saying I don't write reviews for books. This was a reading challenge book and while I hate to label one of the books superior in the challenge, I have to. This was my favorite. I loved this book. I also hated it. That ending... come on.
Now I know how my readers feel. I solemnly swear to try to leave less of a cliffy ending. Not that Laura could help it. It's a series and it has to keep your attention. It did that. I would like the second book. Now.
I hate that some reviewers said it was like the Iron Fae series. I only read the first book of that and well, I like this one better.
I liked the twists and turns and things that had me guessing. I felt like the pages turned themselves.
This was an easy to fall into novel and the world building was fantastic.
I did miss the romance that the genre normally has, I hope there is a little more of it further down the road. ahem... Beyond that it was a great story!!!! I highly recommend it.

Like I said the book is full of great characters. Looking at just the Mortal realm we have the group of "friends" I put the quotes because I think that Allison would use that term loosely. There is her cousin Nicole who is her best friend. Then we have Nicole's boyfriend Jeff who also happens to be the brother of Ethan. Then there is Sean who grew up in the house across the street and of course Rachel. Although Rachel is friends with Nicole, she has a lack luster relationship with Allison. I think they would claw each other's eyes out if they could but they manage to tolerate one another.
There are some great fairy world characters as well. Liam, Allison's dad, of course but there is also Aodhan who almost seems like he becomes a protector of Allison. I think it has more to do with her human status than anything else but it's kind of sweet. You can tell he is one of those characters that you will love in the series. There is also Niamh who I really liked. I just felt like she is going to play out to be a decent ally. There are many other characters both good and bad and with different degrees of what they consider to be wrong and right when it comes to human interaction.
I like the description of Tír na n'Óg, the image in my head is that people seem almost drunk when they wander around there. Not so much the Fey themselves but humans that enter into it. This is how I've always interpreted the fairy realm myself. I kept thinking in my head that Allison shouldn't eat the food and then remembered wait that's the underworld. LOL.
I loved the relationship between Allison and Ethan. I firstly loved the fact that it was something already in progress when we join the story. Secondly the thing I like is that they've kind of had a crush on each other since they were young kids. Plus the interaction between them is just too cute! You can feel the attraction and chemistry between them. I wanted to keep reading their exchanges. I can tell you the ending of the book stressed me out a bit.
There is also a strong family presence, which is always nice to see. Especially with the type of story this is. Family is a common theme for both the mortal realm and the fairy realm.
The ending definitely left you wanting to know what happens next and there are plenty of unanswered questions that I'm sure we will find answers to as the series goes on. I really liked this story and was actually a little sad it was so short. I mean that as a complicate Laura Howard because I liked her writing so much. I want to know so much more about some of the characters and I can tell you I will definitely pick up book 2 because I need to know what happens with Allison and Ethan!!!

From the very first few pages I was drawn to Allison and I knew almost immediately that I was going to love this book. I'm not saying that Allison is perfect, she made a couple of choices I wouldn't have made.. Like constantly casting Ethan aside. Even when she was 'giving him a chance' she was really quick to shut him out. And while I understand her reasoning that doesn't mean I have to agree with them. I'm still trying to work out if she was overly harsh on her father when he arrives, especially given his reason for not being there.. totally valid. But I did like the way their relationship developed throughout the story.
Looking through other reviews and it would seem that Howard has come under fire for her choice of names for her characters, or rather the spelling of those names. But personally I found it to be a great addition to the story, it adds a real Irish flavour to a story that is thick in Irish mythology. If you are going to have a centuries old Irish character it would seem rather out of place if his name was spelled Aiden or Declan. Easier to pronounce, yes, but not authentic. And that is one of the things that gives this book its charm. Howard stayed true to her story and for that I applaud her.
