Nomad
R J Anderson
Exiled from her underground home by Betony, the jealous queen of the piskeys, Ivy sets out to make a new life for herself in the world above – a quest that leads her to mystery, adventure, and a hoard of spriggan treasure. But a deadly poison still lingers in the Delve, and Ivy cannot bear to see her people dying under Betony’s rule. With the help of some old friends she sets out to warn the piskeys of their danger, urging them to rise up and free themselves before it is too late. Yet Betony will not give up her kingdom without a fight…and when her evil threatens the friends and family Ivy holds most dear, it will take all Ivy’s courage, daring and determination to save them. The eagerly-awaited sequel to Swift – from bestselling author, R. J. Anderson.
Reviews
I love this series of fairy stories! This is the 5th book in the series. The main characters of this book are Ivy and Martin. I would recommend reading "Knife", "Rebel", "Arrow" and "Swift" before starting this one because lots of the information from the other books is needed to fully understand the story. If you don't have time to read them all then please read at least "Swift" which is the most relevant as it is when the character of Ivy is introduced. I would rate this book age 9+ because it touches some subjects which younger children may find hard to understand.

I loved the first book, and this one just as well. I can understand how Ivy felt all the way with her, and how she had to struggle. I can’t wait for the next book! I wonder what will happen, now that Ivy is the potential Joan, and has Martin with her.

It's really imaginative - it tells you how to overcome your worst problems. Ivy can become a swift but she wants to upgrade it to a stronger bird - the peregrine falcon. It's a long hard struggle though! I can't wait to read Knife, Arrow, Swift and Ultraviolet. Nomad is only the second book of the series!
