Everything is nicely wrapped up here, but there is a lot of timeline switching. Narration is good as always with the Never After series. I was a bit annoyed at Pan being part of the story here, but it wasn't too bad. I am just not a fan of that particular fairy tale. Hook is usually a good addition and this time is works well.

This was a fantastic ending to this series of stories. 12 year old me would have been in heaven, not that old lady me wasn’t. It was great to get reacquainted with Fil, Jack, Gretel & Alistair along with meeting a bunch of new characters. The dragons, the undead, a great villain along with Pan, Hook and others were so fun. I enjoyed the variety of settings and the way the story was set up in parts. I liked that the ending was very satisfying and tied up all the loose ends for characters that I came to like very much. The narrator was fabulous & listening to her was a joy.

Thanks to NetGalley & MacMillam Audio for Roaring Brook Press for an audiobook copy.

Such a fun ending to a magical series. Many of my students love reading books with fairytale qualities and I think this series is such a good choice for them to pick up.

I'm not a huge fantasy lover, but this book was super cute for ages 9-12. I wish I would have known it was a series before reading this one, however, I will definitely be checking out the rest of the books in this series. Especially audio versions, as the narrator made it so much better.

Thank you to NetGalley and the author for this ARC, truly I enjoyed it.

“13 fairies born to the fairy king and queen when none live so shall never after die with them”

Everything lies on Filomena as she desperately tries to keep the past from repeating itself.

I will admit that I made a mistake and didn’t realize that this was the fifth book in a series , that being said however , I thoroughly enjoyed this book to the point that I plan on going back and reading the first four books that I have yet to read.

I highly recommend this book, especially for older kids and teenagers, but I also think a good majority of adults who enjoy magic and fairytales would also enjoy this book.

The narrator Imani Jade Powers did an amazing job at bringing all the characters to life.
