(4) YA Zara, her werewolf boyfriend Nick, and their friends (introduced in Need) hunt for--and are hunted by--murderous pixies. Newcomer Astley seeks to make half-pixie Zara his queen. The fully realized, quirky characters who strengthened the first installment are somewhat flattened here. Zara and Nick enact expected gender scripts; interactions with their well-meaning but inept friends are played more for chuckles than real connection.
