Into Shadow Series
Likely Complete7 books (2022โ2022)
I cannot generate a reliable description for this series. The book list provided contains inconsistent authorship informationโmultiple entries are attributed to different well-known authors (Garth Nix, Lev Grossman, Tomi Adeyemi, and others) rather than to Alix E. Harrow, which creates significant uncertainty about the series composition and structure. To provide accurate information to readers, I would need verified details about which books actually belong to this series and their correct authors.
Start with Out of the Mirror, Darkness(By: Garth Nix), the first of 7 books in the Into Shadow series.
