September's (The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making) shadow, "Halloween," monarch of a liberated-shadow society in Fairyland's underside, plots to siphon away Fairyland's magic. September, along with shadow-versions of old friends and new companions, searches for the rightful heir to the throne. Valente again draws motifs from mythology, fairy tales, and Victorian fantasy to build an appealing world.
