Soot & Cassandra — Dave Freer

Soot the almost black cat along with his witch Cassandra and her magic, guard the portal between here and otherwhere, where the faeries and their creatures dwell, waiting . They must defend it against faerie and worst, the humans of suburbia. Their allies are a questionable lot, Oog, the Neanderthal troll, and the young werewolf, who the cat knows is in love with a faerie girl.
