Booklist - 06/01/2021 In the sequel to Willa of the Wood (2018), Beatty revisits the fae girl Willa, who lives in the Smokey Mountains of Appalachia and defends her natural surroundings from loggers and human encroachment. Now living with a human family who love the natural world as much as she does, Willa finds herself protecting them from a greedy company hungry for their land, while also parsing out the growth of an evil force of what might be angry ghosts, as well as the mysterious appearance of a girl with wheat-colored hair whom Willa seems connected to. There's a lot of action, as Willa and her new friend fight the denizens of what Willa calls Dark Hollow and try to bring together the remnants of the fae, local families, and Native Americans against the men destroying their forest. The story will appeal to fans of the first book, and to those who like their fantasy blended with environmental issues. - Copyright 2021 Booklist.
