Overview
This first book in a new trilogy set in the same world as Kagawa’s The Iron Fey series is sure to be loved by fans new and old. This time we get to see the world through the eyes of beloved prankster Puck as he sets out to save Faery and the world. Fans of Cassandra Clare should run to add this to their shelves.
“YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF ME...”
Robin Goodfellow. Puck. Prankster, joker, raven, fool... King Oberon's right-hand jester from A Midsummer Night's Dream. The legends are many, but the truth will now be known, as Puck finally tells his own story and faces a threat from a time before Faery began. A threat that brings him face-to-face with a new enemy...himself.
With the Iron Queen Meghan Chase and her prince consort, Puck's longtime rival Ash, and allies old and new by his side, Puck begins a fantastical and dangerous adventure not to be missed or forgotten. Evenfall is coming, and with it a reckoning that even their combined powers and wits may not vanquish, as a shadow falls over the lands of Faery and the world slips into chaos.

Editorial Reviews
01/01/2021
Gr 8 Up—Robin Goodfellow, or Puck, leads this new series set within the world established in the "Iron Fey" series. Puck is pulled into a new adventure when he; Keirran, King of the Forgotten and son of the Iron Queen and the Winter Prince; and Nyx, a deadly assassin, encounter a monster that unleashes negative feelings and anger to all fae who encounter it. Puck and Nyx must recruit Puck's best friends Meghan Chase, the Iron Queen, and Ash, Meghan's consort and a Winter Prince, to stop the monster before it corrupts the entire Nevernever. This new series does not require reading the previous Iron Fey books, but new fans may seek out the previous titles for more world-building and backstory. Fans will enjoy the continuation of Puck, Meghan, and Ash's story and find the new character Nyx an intriguing and delightful addition. While the plot is action-packed, pacing is affected by a clear indication that the book is the first in the series, so the ending is slightly anti-climactic and rushed. The epilogue provides an intriguing hook for readers to continue to the next installment. Characters are of various fey classifications with various skin tones (green, blue, copper). VERDICT A great spin-off series that should capture new readers and please established fans. Recommend to readers who enjoy Cassandra Clare or Holly Black.—Kaetlyn Phillips, Yorkton, Sask.

A new monster invading the world of Faery unearths old hatred, betrayal, and heartache.
In this new trilogy set in the world of The Iron Fey stories, Robin Goodfellow, aka Puck, self-proclaimed World’s Greatest Prankster, is the protagonist. He is interrupted in his latest schemes by a chance encounter with Keirran, King of the Forgotten, who is attempting to contact his mother, the Iron Queen, about a disturbance in the Between. This sets off a quest that revisits beloved characters from previous books while introducing new ones. In the ensuing battles, Puck struggles with his cruel and savage past self and buried hurts. For the uninitiated, the steady stream of characters with complicated backstories and memories related to past books may at first appear daunting to digest. Kagawa, however, does an excellent job of pacing the introductions, connecting the relationship histories, and providing space for all these players to be fleshed out and interact with one another. While the sidhe are mostly described as being similar: “slender, beautiful, otherworldly, and pointy-eared,” with variations in hair and eye color, the story does go into some innate prejudice and bias against beings in different realms. There is no shortage of humor and action, as is to be expected when following Puck’s adventures. When the quips stop, readers know things are about to get serious.
High adventure, rakish humor, and just enough of the feels to get readers’ hearts racing. (Fantasy. 13-17)
