Faerie Wars by Herbie Brennan

Faerie Wars by Herbie Brennan is about Henry, a typical boy who likes building cardboard models. He works for an old, crusty man named Mr. Fogarty. The two of them stumble upon an extraordinary discovery - a fairy has landed in Mr. Fogarty's garden. Pyrgus is the crown prince of the faerie realm, his father is the Purple Emperor. Pyrgus gets himself into a bit of trouble and has a price on his head. His family sends him to our world through a special portal. That's how he ends up in Mr. Fogarty's garden. Unfortunately, someone tampered with the portal and poisoned Pyrgus in a plot to overthrow the Purple Emperor. Now, Pyrgus is in a race for his life. With the help of Henry and Mr. Fogarty, Pyrgus tries desperately to solve the mystery and get back to his own world before it's too late.

I really liked this book! It was interesting to read about the different characters and get to know them through their interactions with their families and friends in their own worlds. This is the first book of four in the Faerie Wars Chronicles Series. I will definitely be reading the second book soon!
