Brought to you by Penguin.
And then there were three . . .
Three years ago, the sisters confronted their demon father in that strange other-world called Everwhere. It was a battle that ended in a devastating loss, and the scars they carry seem to have slowly pushed the sisters apart . . .
One sister, still raw with grief, is now a near recluse but determined to use her powers to resurrect what she has lost.
Another has made the journey to learn more of her family, her culture and her roots.
And another seems to have turned her back on what she is and opted to lead a more normal life.
But now the sisters are about to be brought together once more. Because when the clock strikes midnight, when October ticks into November, when autumn wilts into winter, when All Hallows' Eve becomes All Saints' Day, the sisters Grimm will turn twenty-one and reach the zenith of their powers.
And on this night, at this time, in this place called Everwhere, anything is possible . . .

      Van Praag returns to the fairy tale–inspired world of The Sisters Grimm with an unevenly paced sequel that picks up three years after the events of the first book. After defeating their demonic father, half sisters Liyana, Scarlet, and Goldie lead mundane new lives: Liyana works to keep her ailing aunt alive, Scarlet deals with a relationship crisis, and Goldie grieves the death of her love, Leo. Then their fourth sister, Bea, now living as a raven, talks Goldie into a dangerous plan to resurrect Leo on Goldie’s birthday, when her magic is at her strongest. When Liyana learns of this plot, she knows she and Scarlet won’t be able to stop Goldie and Bea—so instead they offer to help, hoping to mitigate the risk. But the attempted resurrection comes at a hefty price that none anticipate. Magic and mystery make this rich fantasy world come alive, but unfortunately the plot is not as skillfully crafted as its setting. The conflict is disappointingly easy for the sisters to dispel, and, despite the low stakes, the story often feels rushed. Still, the complex sibling dynamic keeps the pages turning. For series fans, just reconnecting with these magical characters may be enough. Agent: Ginger Clark, Curtis Brown.
