This fourth installment doesn't follow the adventures of September in Fairyland as the previous three have. Here we meet Hawthorn and Tamburlaine, a troll and a tree girl who hide their secrets in the human world until they find each other, and together find Fairyland. September does of course put in an appearance, but she is by no means a main feature of this story. And to be honest I loved it all the more for it.

As with all Valente's work it's beautiful and lyrical, whimsical and a bit melancholy. This series will forever have a very special place in my heart.
