Content Ratings

No Romance
There is no romantic content in this installment.
Mild Themes
The corruption of good things into evil through an outside force, the cost of fighting when even allies cannot be trusted, and the importance of standing firm under pressure are central.
Moderate Violence
The shadow plague creates genuinely threatening transformed creatures; combat and magical danger are more intense than in previous volumes; an ally dies.
Synopsis

A mysterious shadow plague is turning the light creatures of Fablehaven dark, threatening to plunge the entire preserve into chaos, while Kendra is sent on a mission to another magical preserve and Seth must defend Fablehaven alongside unlikely allies. A fast-paced third installment that deepens the series' world and mythology while significantly raising the stakes.
