Note of warning THE FAIRIES OF SADIEVILLE is the very last novel in the Tufa series, so reading this book without having read the previous five novels will make it a bit hard to really understand since many events and people from the previous books will be addressed. You can read this book as a stand-alone. However, having at least read one or two books before will make this book a bit easier to understand.

Now for the story. When graduate students Justin and Veronica are cleaning out a dead professor's office are they surprised to find a film canister with a silent movie from a century ago that shows a young woman who turns into a winged being. However, the town Sadieville where the movie is shot seems to not exist, at least not anymore. So, they go to Needsville to search for clues about the missing town. When they arrive in Needsville the townspeople are not very helpful as no one seems to know about a town called Sadieville, however, a man called Tucker Carding helps them out. The question is, why is he so helpful? Has he some hidden motive?

THE FAIRIES OF SADIEVILLE is a perfect ending to a series that started of with THE HUM AND THE SHIVER where for the first time we get to know the residents of Needsville, the mysterious Tufa who are said to have been in Tennessee since before the European colonists and even before the Native Americans arrived on the continent. There are those that say the Tufas are descended from the fairies, from the fabled land of Tir na nOg. However, fairies don\'t exist, or do they? For Justin and Veronica this little trip in search for Sadieville will change their world as they follow Tucker Carding into the dark woods surrounding Needsville.

I have to admit that I wouldn\'t mind a book or two more. Yes, the ending is good, but still, it\'s an ending, I can\'t but help thinking what next? What will happen next for the people? Is this really all? Is it, Alex Bledsoe? So, do yourself a favor if you haven\'t read any of the books in the series and now are curious and want to read them, start from the very first book THE HUM AND THE SHIVER and read them all!
