|summary=A stand-alone-readable sequel to ''[[Wildwood Dancing'']], this is more of an adventure then a fairy romance, though the supernatural makes plenty enough appearances and the boy-girl angle also figures. Entertanining and even educational, but marred by stilted dialogue, it can be nevertheless recommended for teenagers, fans of the genere or those looking for a travel-cum-mystery set in early modern Istanbul.

}}
For a wonderful, evocative and totally convincing story of the past with a strong female lead, great other characters, a lot of adventure and a sprinkle of romance, look no further than [[Gatty's Tale]].
