Publication Information
It is Henry's third visit to the Faerie Realm, but this time in a rather different guise and to a rather different kind of place. Holly Blue is Queen and Lord Hairstreak appears to be proposing a truce between the Faeries of the Night and the Faeries of the Light. Meanwhile Prince Pyrgus has stumbled across some mysterious crystal flowers with an apparently formidable secret weapon, and there are rumours of a demon invasion led by Beleth, the Prince of Darkness.
"Images are colorful, and the ricocheting narrative - each chapter ending in suspense and the next chapter jumping to a different plotline - pulls readers to a surprisingly satisfying conclusion." - Kirkus.
"An interesting world, and the book's ending, while slightly abrupt and not entirely believable, contains a few surprises and is generally satisfying." - VOYA.
