Maxwell, B.E. The Faerie Door, 471 p. Harcourt, 2008.
EL, MS - ADVISABLE
Victoria, 11, steps through a magic gate and finds herself in a place almost 100 years later and across the world, the home of Elliot, a boy who also has a magic gate. The two children find that the Queen of Faeries needs their help, but they must endure separate quests, with very different challenges and dangers, before they are reunited, just in time to face their final danger.
While the story bogs down a bit in the middle, the good bite greatly outweigh the slower bits.
