    About this audiobook

    The Grimm family is caught in the midst of a war in The Everafter War, the seventh installment in Michael Buckley’s beloved New York Times bestselling Sisters Grimm series.

    After two years trapped in enchanted sleep, Daphne and Sabrina’s parents are finally free. Unfortunately, they’ve awoken to chaos in Ferryport Landing. Prince Charming and his band of rebels are in hiding, plotting war against the Master and his henchmen. At first, Sabrina is thrilled to have her family back.
    But after calling the shots for so long, she has forgotten how different—and challenging—life with parents can be. Meanwhile, the Master has dark plans for the Grimms. The family will finally come face-to-face with their tormentor and a betrayal so deep that it will change their world forever!

    The beloved Sisters Grimm series is the perfect opportunity for existing fans to revisit the adventures of the Grimm family and for new readers to discover the magic of the series for the first time.

    “Kids will love Sabrina and Daphne’s adventures as much as I did.”—Sarah Michelle Gellar, star of Buffy the Vampire Slayer

      This series is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! Micheal Buckley is a talented author. He is so creative!! we love this series


    • 5/5
      The Sister’s Grimm by Michael Buckley is about two sisters, Sabrina and Daphne, whose parents mysteriously disappeared when they were children. When they get shipped off to live in a fairytale village with their grandmother, they realize she's strange. She has spell books, a magic mirror and even Cinderella’s slippers. When a giant steals their grandmother, it becomes a giant problem! The girls have to find a way to get their grandmother back and stay alive at the same time!I’d give this book 5 out of 5 stars. I personally love fantasy and this book is full of it. It has a little piece from every fairytale. There’s never a dull moment and there is lots of action. Also, there is like one picture per chapter and it’s nice. I’d recommend it to any young girl who likes fantasy.

      Another excellent installment. I have just one criticism - it ends on a cliffhanger! There should have been a warning on the front cover that this was only part 1 of 2! ARG!! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to request the next volume from the library, right now. If the library wasn't already closed, I'd just go and pick it up :)

      I'd forgotten how fun these books are, although this one was pretty dark, too. Nice to see some character development in Sabrina.
    • 5/5
      great book loved all the adventure and action cant wait to read the series to the finish
    • 3/5
      I did not enjoy this one as much as the others. It was much darker without as much humor. But if this holds true to my preferences - I really enjoy one and then the next one not so much. Looking forward to seeing what the The Inside Story has to offerflag
    • 4/5
      I'm already reading book seven of this fun series, and Buckley is bringing events to cataclysmic proportions. The Everafters are officially at war, with the Scarlet Hand bearing the much bigger force and malicious intent. Prince Charming is head of the resistance, and the Grimms are living with him and Snow White and Sleeping Beauty and the other fairy tale denizens who have decided to fight against their misguided townsfolk. In true fairy tale fashion, the encampment has sprung up in full scale almost overnight, and bears traces of the magical all over its wooden catapults, barracks, and fortresses. While the Scarlet Hand has the superior numbers, Grimm and company have clever minds - not to mention that they're the good guys, after all - and cook up schemes of deception and ambush. The only problem: every time they put a plan in place, the enemy always seems to know every move before they make it. The Grimms decide that there must be a traitor in the camp. The warfare escalates, with some tragic effects, but the Grimms turn their attention to the skill in which they are most proficient, sleuthing. As they try to find the camp saboteur, Prince Charming and Snow White keep rallying their troops to fight and fight again.I have enjoyed this series throughout, and the latest installment is no exception, although the format has radically changed. As I wrote at the beginning, Buckley is accelerating the pace as he draws the threads of the plot together, and that means that this story focuses much more on the large scale conflict and plot, of necessity. The initial set up of the series was that the Grimms lived in Ferryport Landing, and though their relations with the Everafters were tense, they were grudgingly accepted. The family used their unique position to help keep the peace in town, by working as detectives and mediators, and keeping the whole mess from exploding in chaos. These state of affairs lasted for hundreds of years. The first books, then, were unique mysteries, with lots of fairy tale recasts, as Granny Relda and Sabrina and Daphne and Mr. Canis snooped around to catch criminals without letting the outside world and normal people realize the truly magical nature of this town. Now, though, the uneasy alliances have broken completely, the Scarlet Hand has driven all regular folk out of town and the Grimms are living in hiding. No more mysteries around town are possible with this change in dynamic. All the tension that was being kept pressed down by careful negotiations has broken to the surface, and that means that the only place for the series to go is resolution; the overarching plot line, that of the evil Scarlet Hand, was in the background, but now that it has been brought to the forefront, the author has to deal with it, and with the conclusion of this framing structure comes the conclusion of the series.In other words, I'm of mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand, I appreciate that Buckley is not dragging out his story to interminable lengths, where the larger mysteries lose their urgency and therefore, their importance. I do want to see what happens to the Grimms, who is behind the Scarlet Hand, and how the town will end up. So far, I like how Buckley is raising the stakes, and not heading towards an anticlimax that is just patched on at the end. The conflict he set up between the Grimms and the Scarlet Hand, and the Everafters in general, was too large to be tidily dealt with in one book, and he is appropriately devoting some time to it. On the other hand, I loved the format of the series. The Grimms' private detective agency, questioning fairy tale suspects and using magical artifacts to solve mysteries. Although Buckley throws us a little mystery in the form of the saboteur, it's just not the same. I'm happy to see the larger questions finally answered, but oh so sad to see a creative episodic book series terminated so soon. Truthfully, if Buckley decided to start a new series after this one has concluded, where the Grimms are just fairy tale detectives around town and we don't have any arch nemesis looming on the horizon, just crimes that accompany any town but with the added interest of magic, I would be happy to read it. This series was compelling enough for my personal interests in reading that I am sorry to see it end, but am excited to read that ending nonetheless.
    • 2/5
      This series has its good points -- female protagonists, some cool characters, humor. And its bad points -- too much action, too many characters, uncertainty of tone, chaos.This particular book is all about a war, so it's a lot of battles and well, that was the most boring of the LotR movies, so I certainly think it's the most boring of these books. Also, Puck is getting increasingly gross. If this series is trying to be aimed at girls, or girls and boys, it's leaning a little too heavily on the boy's side in this book.The book also seems to be afraid of emotion. The most emotional scenes feel abrupt, wrong, and flat. (Think Sirius going through the Veil in book 5.)I'm also not keen on the direction this series seems to be headed for the next book.

      Sisters Grimm: The Everafter WarBy: Brandon AtkinsThe Sisters Grimm is a continuation about a mysterious family that ties in with their ancestors the Brothers Grimm which causes many problems in the present day in a small town called Ferryport Landing. This story has many plots and therefore has many stories and twists. This book has many main characters, but the ones that this story revolves around are the Grimm family. The family consists of Sabrina Grimm the oldest sister, Daphne Grimm the youngest sister, Henry Grimm the father of the two girls, Veronica Grimm the mother of the two girls, “Granny” Relda Grimm the grandmother of the two girls and the mother of Henry Grimm. Other important characters in this story include Little Red Riding Hood, Big Bad Wolf/Mr.Canis, Three Little Pigs, and The Queen of Hearts. There are many other characters in this book that are important but will not be listed. Another detail about this is that all the characters are story book characters and they are all called Everafters because they all lived happily ever after, and they never grow old.I personally liked this book because it finally brings together many loose ends that were brought up in the previous books in the continuation. The book has a lot to do with family itself and it really clears up what was not clear in the other books. This book is like a long road to success because no matter how bad the girls problems are try they still have something to look forward to in the end. A great example of this was when the girls were finally reunited with their parents in this book. Their parents had been locked away in a long deep sleep so the parents were unable to wake up, but after all there hard efforts they finally woke up and the parents and children were reunited after two long years.In the book, what I hated the most was the false feeling of losing. An example of this is when all hope was lost and Mr. Canis was about to die on trial and then the Big Bad Wolf finally took over Mr.Canis’s body and he completely broke free of the chains retraining him and ran away, but after that it seemed like the Big Bad Wolf was completely evil and that there was no more good from Mr.Canis inside of him, but in the end Mr.Canis returned to his former self. Mr. Canis had been fighting the Big Bad Wolf from within himself for the past 3,000 years ever since the story of Little Red Riding Hood began. The setting in this book takes place in Ferryport Landing, New York and Paris, France and other various places throughout New York. In my opinion the book had two themes. One of the themes was to never give up. A great example of this was when the Child Care Services woman Ms. Smirt had come back to take away Daphne and Sabrina Grimm away from Relda Grimm and take them aboard a train and take them away to another foster parent. The girls had tried everything to get away but they never gave up and eventually hey made it off the train because of their persistence. Another theme in this story is to follow your heart no matter where it takes you. An example of this is when Sabrina had been struggling between doing the right thing. She had been struggling because she had been going through a tough time and when she finally listened to her heart she did the right thing and saved the family right in the nick of time.I recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy, and story book characters playing present day roles. This book is for anyone twelve and up. This book is a great young adult reader for those who just want to relive the old story book characters except more grown up. This was great read to read and I liked it.
    • 5/5
      All of the Sister's Grimm books are charming and fun to read. In this book, the plot turns very grim (haha). A war between peace seeking Everafters and the Red Hand finally begins. Sabrina is faced with new dilemas and problems. The book is aimed towards girls 8-12, but i think it's enjoyable regardless of age.
    • 5/5
      I cannot rave enough about how great this series is. Every book gets better, throwing in new characters, plot twists and storylines. Having sucessfully woken their parents up after 2 years in an enchanted sleep, everything should be great for Daphne and Sabrina. However, their parents are argueing, Daphne wont talk to Sabrina, and the forces of the Red Hand are coming ever closer.Also, finally, we learn who the 'Master' is, and what his plans are, but can the family cope when they cant seem to survive their personal conflicts?i cannot wait for the next in the series.
    • 5/5
