I'm not really sure why I finished The Wizard of London. It wasn't particularly horrible, but it doesn't really seem to fit in with the rest of the series. While it does take place in the same universe as the Elemental Masters, it mostly doesn't involve Elemental Masters (the two who are major characters aren't really present until the end of the book). Instead, it is about three characters who have psychic powers. Two of them are young girls who have animal companions (and, fitting with most of the tropes, the animals are good, wise, impossibly smart, psychically active, and don't behave at all like animals). I don't really care for the trope (although, to be fair, I sort of loved the horse version of it when I was younger).

Also, as far as I could tell, this didn't have elements of any fairy tales (Puck is present, but it doesn't have the elements that make it recognizable as a particular fairy tale).
