Shadow of the Fox
Autor Julie Kagawaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 mai 2019 – vârsta de la 13 ani
Every millennium, whoever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers has the power to call the great Kami Dragon from the sea and ask for one wish. The time is near...and the missing pieces of the scroll will be sought throughout the land of Iwagoto.
When demons kill half-kitsune Yumeko's adoptive family, she's forced to flee her home with one part of the ancient scroll. Fate thrusts her into the path of mysterious samurai Kage Tatsumi, who is Yumeko's best hope for survival. But he's under orders to retrieve the scroll. An uneasy alliance forms, and Yumeko begins the deception of a lifetime, knowing her secrets are more than a matter of life or death-they're the key to the fate of the world.

Maria Nastasia a dat nota:
I have to say that this was a hella awesome read, but it had some disappointments in here and there. But to begin the actual review, the plot was super cool. The main problem in the Nevernever is everything dying off--if you've read TIF series, you'll already know this. And then there are faeries that spring up out of no where when Ethan's friend goes missing. They're the faeries that children forgot about, their Glamour ran on the children's imagination, if I'm not mistaken. (It's been a almost a whole bloody year since I've read about TIF. ;-;) That's all I'll say about that because I already feel like I'm spoiling everything. ;P But I thought the plot was awesomely neat and a clever point to be made since it's been stated in TIF. That means old characters show up.
