About the NEED series: Zara White collects phobias like other people collect stamps. “It’s a lot easier to understand things once you name them,” she says. “It’s the unknown that mostly freaks me out.” But soon, Zara is plagued by new fears:- Fear of gold, glittery powder- Fear of something (or someone) she cannot see- Fear of mysterious strangers that want something from her- Fear of what it is they want- Fear of how they'll get it-In other words, fear of pixies. They live among us, hidden by a trick of the eye. They are dreadful and power-seeking. And they all seem to need something. Something from her. “Filled with nasty evil creatures, nail-biting action and heart-pounding romance, [and] written with an intense energy that electrifies each page.” --teenreads.com
